Suggest Remedies For Loose Skin In My Gums

I have spaces in between my lower teeth where it constantly feels like I have food caught in place. I am continually rubbing my tongue in between and this morning when I was looking, I noticed that part of my gum is starting to come loose from in between my teeth.

Hello,

As you said there is food lodgement in between your teeth, there a high risk of gum related problems, just visit your dentist and get a thorough cleaning done, and as you suggested that your gums appear to lose it is due to calculus formation around your teeth get an orthopantomogram (OPG) done for better diagnosis.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
