Before <My gum recession didn’t just happen around one tooth; my gums receded overall > I had a severe protruding lower jaw, so I had treatment for the protruding lower jaw + general orthodontics, and the orthodontic period alone took about 3 and a half years My lower teeth covered my upper teeth, and my teeth were crooked with a snaggletooth too, so it was pretty rough I never imagined I’d get gum recession as a side effect of orthodontics, but the gum recession became really severe All the tooth roots are visible, so if the wire retainer weren’t attached on the inner side of my teeth, I think my teeth might probably fall out After orthodontics, my impression improved so much and my teeth became straight, so I smile well without covering my mouth now, and I don’t regret it, but Everyone, don’t take orthodontics lightly. Think carefully before doing it!
