Answers:
Gums can grow back depending on how much you lost. Even if they grow back, it's reattached by long junctional epithelium that isn't as good as the original connective tissue that connected your gums to your teeth. When a dentist tells you to brush lighter/gentler you do it b/c the harsh brushing can ruin your gums.
Grafting may be possible but it depends on the size and location of the graft. It's an expensive procedure, requires a lot of patient compliance, and may need additional grafting procedures.Health Question & Answer

Hello...Ok so you got bonked in the face and got some gum damage...The answer is YES, both gum bone and gum tissue will restore, "BUT", only on a limited basis...If for some reason you had a considerable amount of gum bone eliminated, restoration would probably require a bone graft. If it doesn't come back on it's own you need to see a Periodontist. (gum specialist)...good luck and I wish you well.Health Question & Answer
