“The installation of artificial gums?”
I want to ask about the installation of artificial gums. I mean the external material. I do not know what its origin is. It is placed on the teeth..not the tissue that is removed from the healthy gums to restore the mouth. I want to know about it and is dangerous in the long term, and when three years have passed to change it. Will it cause tooth extraction with it?

You should contact a periodontist for the answer to that question. I am an endodontist, and that information is beyond the scope of my specialty.
Hi,
So, not sure about your question. But from what I understand, resin filling material is placed (bonded) on the exposed root surface (recessed area). The filling material is tooth colored, but there are pink resin available to imitate the lost gum tissue. The placement is the same as a register filling, i.e., bonded. The prognosis of the tooth will depend on how clean you keep the area and how smooth the filling is done. If plaque continually collects there, the tissue may continuously recede. The ideal is a gum graft. Do chat with your dentist about all options.
Thanks.
