teeth, health, smile,dentist, dentalhealth, oralhealthvThere are various reasons why gums recede, or pull back exposing more of the tooth and its roots.

– Aggressive brushing or teeth grinding can damage the gums.

– Smoking and using tobacco products irritates gum tissue.

– Gum disease is the most common reason for receding gums yet is preventable.

Dr. Little keeps abreast of new developments in restorative dentistry through post-graduate training.

Dr. Little is also an experienced Facial Aesthetistician, including Botulinum toxins (such as Botox) and Dermafillers. She appreciates how simple and subtle changes to smooth and relax muscles can “freshen” a face, to look younger.
