Scared!!

I'm having such bad anxiety over my teeth again (this happens a lot just before an appointment!)

About a month ago (maybe less) I was flossing and noticed that the gum in between my front teeth and also in between my canines has detached from the tooth.

Whenever I see my dentist she says I have Amazing teeth but not so great gums! I was meant to book a hygienist appt. Last year but then lockdown hit.

I'm not petrified I've left it too late and soon I'm going to have huge gaps or my teeth will fall out. I've also taken such pride in my smile that it's making me feel sick just thinking about it.

Can anyone offer any reassurance?

I floss with a water flosser at night, brush twice a day and use Gengigel mouthwash.
