Gum Recession Cure - How to Rebuild Gums

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 มิ.ย. 2020
  • Gum Recession can be ugly and can also be a sign of gum disease.
    Building gum back is often very difficult, and many family dentists would not have the experience to be able to do something like this.
    Visit my website/ Instagram linktr.ee/dr.sehmi
    There are several ways to build gum back, and most are variations on a similar theme- the gum graft (or we call it a connective tissue graft - because it sounds more clever!)
    In this video I'll show you when this treatment works really well and in those situations where it is not that great.

    Pulling oil saved my teeth. I was flossing, brushing and waterpiking my teeth, but I still had gum recession. When my dentist said that I needed a gum graft, I started looking for another solution. I put a spoonful of coconut oil in my mouth for about 10-15 minutes every morning, before brushing and just move it around my mouth. Make sure you spit it out in the garbage, don't spit it in the sink or toilet or it will cause plumbing problems. Oil pulling has stopped my gum recession, it made breath fresher and made my teeth will feel more firmly in place. I told 3 of my friends who had similar problems and two of them have stopped their gum recession as well. While my gums did not regenerate, they have not receded any further. Try it for a week, it may help you as well.
    EDITED to answer questions that are repeatedly asked. I don't recommend one brand of oil over another, I use any type of organic coconut oil. If you don't like/can't use coconut oil, try sesame oil, sunflower oil or olive oil. If oil in your mouth makes you gag, start by using less oil, for a shorter amount of time and build your way up.

    I used oil pulling with either sesame oil or coconut oil, infrared light therapy and myrrh essential oil and my gum above my eye tooth has grown back. I oil pull in the morning for 20 minutes. On occasion when I use coconut oil I will put in the myrrh oil in with it. At night I will put the myrrh oil right on the gum and I will rub it in and around the gum. Then I will also use my infrared light therapy for 12 minutes. I’ve been doing this for 7 months, and I am not doing it consistently everyday. I only have a tiny little hole left in the gum. The gum has grown back. My dentist was in shock.

It would save people and they'd keep their original teeth and not need to have them all get crowns and/or root canals, or pulled and end up with dentures or no teeth. I am grateful for any health care, but our system is in decline too. It's very rare those with government health care get root canals, only in the front teeth where any other non-visible teeth the only option for the 98% is to pay a big price or have them pulled. I was very lucky and my dentist very surprised that I was covered for a crown, very rare, and it was a molar or non-visible tooth.

      Most of the more severe illnesses happen to people by an upsetting event happening in their lives that takes them by surprise, unexpectedly, impacting first in the brain, then in the corresponding organ which that part of the brain controls. The end of WWI had absolutely everything to do with the Flu and lung TB outbreak that occurred killing millions. In nature, the biological conflict linked with a territorial fear (just what it means-a fear in your territory, your home, your community, etc.) is a widening of the bronchia (tissue loss). Your body attempts to widen your bronchia in order to allow more air into your lungs to give you more strength and energy to fight to keep your territory safe. Stay with me.......The biological conflict linked with a death fright impacts the lungs. The lungs attempt to grow larger in order to allow more air in because breath equals life, as we all know. No breath equals death. Why are so many people across the world suddenly having their appendix removed? The appendix is associated with “being in fear for one’s life”. The HEALING phase is the rupture/inflammation.

      While you are in the fear or death fright conflict, you notice no symptoms of “disease”, except you have cold hands, cold feet, you can’t sleep, you awaken at 3 AM every night, you have little appetite. During the war, millions of people were in fear of the bombing of their homes and cities where the war was most active. Fearing for their lives, their loved ones in the war, their ability to survive. The food in the stores was sparse due to shortages. This lasted for 4 long years! The longer the conflict, the worse the healing phase. Within 2 weeks of the German Chancellor announcing the end of WWI, these millions of people ALL went into the healing phase all at the same time. It is during the healing phase that you experience symptoms of illness! What is the healing phase of the bronchia widening? Severe bronchitis, pneumonia. The body attempts to refill this lost tissue and you experience inflammation, fever, coughing, body aches, fatigue, etc. What is the healing phase of the extra lung tissue that grew? Decomposing of the tissue by TB bacteria and fungi. The symptoms of this healing phase are: severe coughing up of blood and tissue, fever, inflammation, severe mucous, body aches, fatigue. During this decomposing of the extra tissue (tumor), the body expels a lot of protein, and without replenishment, severe protein loss can result in death. Antibiotics did not exist yet. If TB bacteria does not exist in a person or they have been vaccinated against TB (big mistake), then the tumor will simply encapsulate and become dormant and not harm you. Who died during the Spanish Flu? Mainly the poor who could not afford to buy meat and proper nourishment, and the people who were directly impacted by the bombings and destruction of their homes.

      Millions of people suffered fear and death frights during the fighting of WWI, and millions of people all went into healing at the end of it. Not everyone was affected because not everyone suffered the same way.

      It’s not a “flu”, it’s not something you “catch”. It’s biological, meaningful, and unavoidable. One hundred years later, a Fear Campaign begins, using the media to spread it......

    So true, I had gum disease and changed my diet, took supplements and visited the dentist who extracted 2 decayed teeth. I did oil pulling (moringa oil) and flossed everyday. Rinsed with a Mouthwash and brushed lightly for two minutes each morning and each night. I did this consistently which prevented plaque build up and irritation. I had the black triangles between each tooth on the top set, however, 6 months on my gums are fully recovered and the gaps are no longer. It takes time, effort and a lot of TLC, but the results are amazing. I am not OCD with my teeth, but I am definitely more aware of my dental duties and have managed to save any more teeth from being affected. I had one filling, and an enamel erosion fixed with some gel like substance so there would be no further damage to the tooth. All in all I think I got very lucky.

It is very important to keep your D3 levels high as D3 is needed for many functions in your body. It must be taken with K2..not calcium.

My dentist has a hygienist and I swear that as a result of her advice my teeth are going to fall out! she told me to use these little brushes instead of flossing and said to me that they really get in between the teeth and take everything out since I started to do it, I noticed that my teeth moved, not only that but my front lower teeth the gum has gone right down! .. Watching this vlog I now know what is wrong! I am told that I have a gum disease called periodontal and that my teeth cannot be saved!

All I recall was after having some stubborn plaque removed, the sensitivity to one back too started. The lady who explain about the graft was not even as kind as you. She came in to save her colleague who performed the plaque removal. The technician took face pictures of me, the dentist lady came Delivered the graft option briefly Put some varnished on my teeth, which I later bought on my own, bombarde me with some bills and that was it! I never returned to that place.

    That was 14 months or more ago and I haven't visited a dentist yet. However my calculus has not only gone but my gums have healed and look if they have begun to grow back.
    Anecdotal I know, but K2 apparently scavenges calcium from places it shouldn't be. Not a quick fix but I'm so happy. Worth some research.

    Yikes! That's major! I have gum recession , am 49, and have started massaging the gums twice a day (re Dr Ellie Phillips) with my toothbrush, and using Listerine and Act rinses. I noticed at the beginning my gums were weak and made sore by the brushing, but after 3 days already were healthier. I'm hoping the stimulation, and maintenance of gum health will encourage them to grow back. I'm right handed so will also try to brush less hard on my left side.
    I had fillings done to cover sensitive exposed roots, but two of them were not done right, and air, soup and ice cream are still a problem on those two...

    Thanks for the excellent video Dr Sehmi! I've had three gum grafts - two grafts on my lower front teeth and one graft to try to fix deep recession around a back molar. Although I have thicker gums in the lower front teeth, I still have dark triangles and it didn't fix the deep recession around my back molar. My dentist suggests that I have the tooth extracted and get an implant. These gum graft surgeries were costly and painful. Plus, I still have to brush my teeth, floss and use a perio-aid after I eat anything because the food gets caught in the triangles which is really frustrating. Your gum grafts actually worked and the photos look beautiful! My periodontist never takes before and after photos. Can you recommend a good periodontist and implant specialist in California? I live in San Francisco and could see anyone in the Bay Area. Also, would you recommend laser treatments or composites for my dark triangles?

    Brush three times, floss with water after each meal or even after drinking coffee and tea. Stop overeating sugar, or if you are a sugar addict, then floss and gargle with water right after the consumption. The primary cause of tooth decay is that we are ignorant about it. Using a good and soft brush with the correct brushing technique and regular three times brushing will treat most cases. The more important thing is to stop munching in between meals. Our teeth are the most ignorant part of our body. I have had no cavities for the last 26 years and go to my dentist every year. Just take your responsibility and protect your money, time, and energy.

      Yes, my dentist said I would lose my tooth if I didn't get gum graft surgery. I didn't get the surgery and my gums are almost completely back to normal there. Here is what I did: 1. I got a good electric toothbrush and made sure when brushing I wasn't adding extra pressure or motion on the teeth but did move the tootbrush over the receded area to keep it clean. 2. I got rid off all conventional toothpastes and bought Nelsons Naturals toothpaste which also helped me rebuild some of my enamel . I got the one with fennel as I find it works the best. It's filled with minerals and I think it was a huge cause of my gums healing. I avoided sugar as much as possible unless it was from fruit and drank primarily only water.

    Interesting! I’ve had tissue grafting years ago on my bottom gums going across, but never seen it done this way. I sure could use it on my top gums (grooves). The healing process is painful from the tissue removal, but worth it. Thank you....this was informative.

    Increasing calcium intake can also increase teeth and bone density so they wont break down or wear out as quick but before you increase your calcium intake make sure you have the right amount of blood cells to store and use up the minerals to rebuild your self, your blood cell count is very important for good overall health internally and externally

      Most people have enough calcium stored in their body .
      If you’re gonna take calcium you need vitamin k 2, to transport the calcium out of your veins and into the right places or else
      You will harden your arteries .
      Sports nutrition has a decent k2 supplement .

    Thank you for your video, you mentioned orthodontic treatment being a cause of gum disease, I was suspecting orthodontic treatment was probably what caused my 22yr.old daughter to develop triangles, unfortunately we live to far away--in Australia, she is very passionate about her teeth & is now talking about removing all her teeth and putting in veneers, spine-chilling!!! At age 13 I got her to start orthodontic treatment she now has straight teeth with triangles,bought a dental water treatment kit to help with plaque is it harmful to use it on a very hi pick setting?

    I had gum graft done on one of my bottom teeth and the tooth still looks the same. Tissue was just placed on my bottom gums not around the tooth. I expressed my concerns to the periodontist but she insisted that what she did was only to prevent more gum receding not to cover the bone of the tooth. Wish I had done research before I proceeded with this periodontist. Now I have to get a second opinion 🙄 thanks for your video.

    • @Jess-Rabbit
      @Jess-Rabbit 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The bone definitely should have been covered. However I think maybe the bottom front teeth is a difficult area. I don't know if yours was in the front but I had several done and the ones in my bottom front look meh. My perio is great but that spot is just a problem area for me where plaque builds up quick no matter what I do. So the gum doesn't look as thick there as everywhere else. That doesn't mean its bad but based on how all my other teeth look post surgery, the root bone should be covered, as shown in this video

Dentist have this on there websites "once gum loss happen you cannot get it back" Not one Dentist ever said it can be restored through gum grafting "WoW" thank you for educating us through this tutorial.
