at the top of my mouth, both of the molars on either side that are closest to the centre of the mouth that are out of alignment and growing in behind the tooth line, and they both represent where the recession is worst - in the premolars and canines in front of them. that is, the recession is occurring in the the teeth that are properly aligned in front of the ones that are out of alignment. it was one of those "a-ha" moments, and now it's obvious.
on the bottom, both of my canines are growing inwards, and there is recession on the incisors adjacent to them. it's even more obvious, there.
can you straighten your teeth at 40 years old? or is that too dangerous? i just want my gums back...
