The time passes really quickly and those gums which are not filled right will be full of teeth in a very short period of time in the case of the droolers. The appearance of teeth in the case of these kids is very noticeable as the child attracts the attention of his parents because of the significant pain and suffering that he is experiencing through that time period.

Dear lybrate-user
gum recession has different grades and needs to be assessed by a specialist to assign that grade to it.
After we have assigned a grade can we proceed for treatment. As you can imagine lower the grade-easier/lesser/more successful the treatment.
And as the grade increases the complexity/cost/treatment duration also increase with consequent lowering of prognosis and full recovery.
Please see a specialist near you.
