Question:

What does it mean when someones gums receed?


Answers:

It means that this person is doing things which make the gums recede. It does not happen normally, only when you:
1. Drink too much alcohol
2. Don't get enough "live" foods, with active enzymes and vitamins, such as raw fruit and veg
3. Brush your teeth like mad, that'll wear'em down over time.
4. Smoke.
In the end, receding gums will contribute to looking "long in the tooth" - a quaint way of saying somebody looks old. Receding gums are frequently found on older people, not because age makes them recede, but because many people have been wearing them down with their habits over the decades. This does not need to happen.
