What's the best way to keep healthy white teeth?

Do the simple things. Brush and floss your teeth daily, morning and night. Try to avoid food or drink with dark colors. You want whiter, brighter smile?! Call me. :-)

One more question......Mr. Gentle Dental.......how many times should kids brush a day?

Kids learn from their parents. Be a good example and brush twice daily with your children.

Once the gumline has receded, can it ever grow back to where it should be normally?

Hi Hugh,

No, unfortunately once gum has receded it does not grow back.
But, there is procedure called gingival grafting/connective tissue grafting to restore gum line.
Consult your dentist or have your dentist refer you to periodontist, who could evaluate the periodontal condition for proper treatment.

Thanks for the info. I may be stopping by your office in the near future for a long overdue check-up/cleaning.
