Hi. You are too young to have receding gums. Do good care of your oral hygiene. Visit a dentist for Scaling / Cleaning.

Dear Lybrate user, Gum recession could be because of deposits on the tooth near the gum line. Visit your dentist for Oral prophylaxis/ Scaling procedure. It will improve your oral hygiene and gum recession.
If the recession still persists your dentist might suggest you other treatment options.

Gums only grow to some extent if the tartar /deposit has been removed already ...but if they don't grow back you may need surgical flap procedure to cover the teeth by gums back
