I have receeding gums behind my front lower teeth. Can they be saved? (Photo)

In many cases, teeth can be saved depending on how much bone is remaining to support those teeth. Without seeing proper x-rays and measurements of your gums, it is hard to say definitively what type of gum disease you may have. However, it appears in the pictures that you do have calculus buildup around the teeth which if left there will eat away the bone holding your teeth in place.It is important to see a dentist as soon as possible to take the necessary steps in diagnosing your condition so that you can find a way to treat it before it gets worse. In many instances, a deep cleaning and a good maintenance program can help rid the bacteria and plaque underneath your gums and prevent you from losing those teeth!Be proactive in getting it treated quickly before its too late to save themGood luck!

Without seeing The x-rays, it's hard to make a definitive diagnosis. With that said, you have a tartar built up around your teeth and under your gums.  The tartar Causes the gums to become inflamed and start to recede. Behind the lower front teeth is a classic spot for this to occur, as you have a salivary duct there. You also have some crowding there, creating nooks and crannies for the tartar to build up in.  The tongue and the lip sweep over the tooth surfaces and help to keep them clean. With the crowding, they don't get into overlapped spots.  go see the dental team as they will help you to keep your teeth. The hygienist cleans off all the tartar buildup  it shows you how to take care of your teeth at home.  on the front of the lower teeth, you have a piece of tissue connecting from your lip into the gums around your teeth. That tissue is pulling your gums down, helping to create more recession. that connection can be lasered away, and the pulling will stop. This is called a frenectomy. The crowding and overlapped teeth can be corrected with orthodontic treatment such as Invisalign.best of luck to you!

Yes, your lower front teeth can be saved with appropriate gum therapy. I would recommend seeing a dentist who would need to perform a comprehensive periodontal/gum evaluation and diagnose the cause behind the gum recession. You will most probably need periodontal therapy like scaling and root planing and gum grafts to restore the health of the gum tissues.
