Why Are My Gums Receding and Can They Grow Back? What Every Patient Should Know
Gum recession means your gum line is moving down, so more of the tooth, and even the root, shows. Teeth can look longer, feel sensitive to cold, and become easier to decay.
Common causes are gum disease, brushing too hard, teeth grinding, thin gums, tobacco and crooked teeth. Gum tissue does not grow back on its own, but modern treatment can cover exposed roots and protect your teeth.
Struggling with sensitive roots or thinking about a smile upgrade too? See our cosmetic dentistry options.
Time to get checked if you notice:
- Teeth that look longer than before
- Sharp sensitivity to hot or cold drinks
- A notch or “step” near the gum line
- Bleeding or red gums when you brush

How Does Gum Recession Surgery Work? Your Step-by-Step Journey in Turkey
- Send photos. Share clear pictures of your gums. We tell you for free which treatment may fit and the price range.
- Exam and measurements. On arrival, the dentist checks gum depth, roots and your bite, and cleans the area.
- Gum treatment. A graft or pinhole procedure is done under local anesthesia, so you stay comfortable.
- Aftercare briefing. You leave with a written plan for food, cleaning and medication.
- Review and protect. A check confirms healing. Add teeth cleaning in Istanbul to keep results strong.
Deep cleaning
- Early or gum-disease related recession
- Stops it from getting worse
- Often the first step before surgery
Gum graft
- Moderate to severe recession
- Thin gums or exposed roots
- Covers the root with healthy tissue
Pinhole surgery
- Several teeth in one visit
- No cuts or stitches in many cases
- Shorter, gentler recovery
Only a dentist can confirm the right treatment after an exam.
Do
- Eat soft, cool food at first
- Take medication exactly as prescribed
- Clean other teeth gently as shown
- Keep your head raised when resting
- Attend every check
Don’t
- Brush the treated area hard
- Pull your lip to look at the area
- Smoke or vape during healing
- Eat hard, hot or spicy food
- Skip follow-up and hygiene visits
Remember: how many times to brush a day matters, but gentle is better than hard.
Gum Graft vs Pinhole Gum Surgery: Which Is Better for Receding Gums?
Gum graft
Healthy tissue is placed over the exposed root. A strong choice for thin gums or severe recession. Learn more about gum graft surgery.
Pinhole gum surgery
Gums are gently moved down through a tiny hole. Often less discomfort and quick recovery. See pinhole gum surgery.
Cover a sensitive root with a filling or bonding
For small notches near the gum line, a tooth-colored repair can help. See composite bonding and tooth fillings.

Gum Recession Treatment in Turkey: Your Questions Answered
How much does gum recession treatment cost in Turkey?
Estimated prices start around €190 for a single-tooth gum graft, €350 for pinhole surgery in one area and €120 for a deep cleaning. The final price depends on how many teeth are treated and the technique.
Can receding gums grow back?
Gum tissue does not grow back on its own. Grafts or pinhole surgery can cover exposed roots, and good habits help stop further loss.
What is the best treatment for gum recession?
It depends on how much gum is lost, how many teeth are affected and your gum thickness. Mild cases may need cleaning and better brushing. Moderate to severe cases may need a graft or pinhole surgery.
Is gum graft surgery painful?
The area is numbed with local anesthesia, so you should not feel pain during treatment. Soreness and swelling for a few days are common and are managed with medication.
Is pinhole gum surgery better than a gum graft?
Pinhole surgery uses no cut or stitches in many cases and often feels gentler. Grafts can suit thin gums or severe recession. The right choice depends on your case. See pinhole gum surgery.
How long is recovery after gum recession surgery?
Most people return to normal activity within a few days and eat soft foods for one to two weeks. Full healing takes longer, and your dentist will give exact timing.
How long do I need to stay in Turkey?
Most patients plan two to four days for the exam, treatment and a first check. We confirm your stay after your photo review.
Is gum recession treatment covered by insurance?
It depends on your insurer and policy. Some plans cover gum treatment when medically needed, so ask before you travel. We can provide a written plan and invoice.
