Good evening. Have anyone had an X-ray in their mouth and it showed large spaces inside your gum ? Well it has me so nervous.

Bad gums

[Jsteve36]

I have had xrays done is I have been dealing with bad teeth for quite some time, I had 15 removed in 2014 and have to have the remaining 17 removed due to them shifting and breaking.So I know how the fear feels when it comes to this sort of thing.

Keep us updated as to what is going on

It's most likely something normal going on in with you, stay positive and everything will be ok.

Sometimes you can get pockets in your gums due to gum disease. Follow what your dentist says for proper treatment.

What did the Dentist say it was?? Gingivitis??

[valachia-t in reply to Dixie9326]

Hypercementosis, granulation tissue.

[Dixie9326]

Do you have a follow up appointment with the dentist or specialist? Sounds like you need periodontal treatment or risk tooth loss..🥺

[valachia-t in reply to Dixie9326]

YesI do. I don’t know how I got this. I have no rotten are bad teeth. My teeth are all white and healthy. I brush and floss more than regularly.

[Dixie9326]

How often do you visit the dentist? We all need a really good cleaning, at least annually, to keep our teeth and gums healthy :). 🥰👍🏻I go every six months to keep up my dental health

[valachia-t in reply to Dixie9326]

I agree. I been going to the dentist every 6 months for the last 40 years are more.

[Dixie9326]

Ask the dentist how this happens when you care for your teeth and get regular professional cleanings…I want to know too

[valachia-t in reply to Dixie9326]

I did ask her. She really didn’t know. She said it could be hereditary, but no one on my mom side has this. I don’t know my father.
