Very Bad Receding Gum Line, Best Option? (photo)

kaysolameio
I have a bad receding gum line! I have seen 3 different dentists about it and they all have different opinions about how to go about fixing this problem. Pull it and get a fake tooth. Lazer surgery to kill whats causing the gum to pull away (very expensive) and oral surgery. What is the best option? I am 33 and am not to keen on the fake teeth just yet.
