Avoid aggressive horizontal strokes and use an electric toothbrush if possible, as it helps control pressure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Choose suitable products<\/strong>: Opt for toothpastes and mouthwashes designed for sensitive gums, free of alcohol and with anti-inflammatory ingredients.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Don&#039;t forget to floss<\/strong>: Its daily use prevents the accumulation of plaque in areas where the brush cannot reach, which is key to maintaining healthy gums.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Controls bruxism<\/strong>If you grind your teeth while sleeping, a mouth guard can prevent excessive pressure on your gums. Consult with us about custom-made mouth guards.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Avoid tobacco and oral piercings<\/strong>: both irritate and inflame the gum, promoting retraction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Do regular check-ups<\/strong>: Visiting the dentist every 6 months allows for early detection of any signs of retraction or periodontal disease.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Corrects dental malposition<\/strong>If your teeth are misaligned, orthodontics not only improves aesthetics but also the long-term health of your gums.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Incorporating these habits can make a big difference in the health of your gums and prevent the appearance of gingival recession.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"opinon-de-un-paciente-satisfecho\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Opinion of a satisfied patient<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&quot;I started noticing that my teeth looked longer, and I was sensitive to cold foods. I thought it was normal with age, but during my checkup at Acedo, they explained that it was receding gums. They gave me a deep cleaning, taught me how to brush properly, and now I have a splint for bruxism. My oral health has improved a lot, and above all, I&#039;m no longer in pain.
