Common conclusions

Having one or more teeth removal causes a sort of bone and gum defect. You can notice gum recession and feel that area a little sensitive due to soft tissues loosening as far as nothing keeps them in place. That situation is temporary and stops as soon as your gum recovers. If such condition persists, visit your dentist for further examination.

It seems you can see and feel your roots because calculus was located at that areas. Such situation occurs since calculus is removed and your gums do not cover your roots yet. That situation is temporary and stops as soon as your gum recovers. In the meantime, you can try to use gum soothing gel remedy. This may help you to make it recover a little faster. If such condition persists, visit your dentist for further examination.

Having teeth roots baring combined with mobility is a sign of gum and bone disease. You may also feel these parts sensitive. This situation may lead in a long run to heavy mobility and teeth loss. You should be also careful as far as roots are not covered with enamel and are more vulnerable to decay. Such condition needs professional treatment as soon as determined. Schedule a visit to your dentist for further examination and treatment.

Having one or several teeth root barings may indicate bite disharmony. This situation occurs due to wrong occlusal force spreading while chewing. You should be also careful since roots are not covered with enamel and are more vulnerable to decay. Such condition needs professional treatment. You may try to see your dentist for selective grinding to lower the excessive force. Moreover, gum defects are usually fixed with dental surgery methods. Schedule a visit to your dentist for further examination and treatment.
