Hello doctors, I am 20 years Male. My Gums are going upside i.e. The teeth are looking very big from front. Does it causes tooth weakening?

Dear Lybrate user, yes, reduction of gums causes tooth weakness. Tooth become weak then mobile then tooth fall down. So gum reduction causes tooth loss before time. You should consult dentist for deep scailling and curatage. Deep scailling and curatage will recover your gum size and make your teeth healthy.
