Alex has ALWAYS had an issue with spongy, easy to cause bleed, slightly
swollen gums.
Haven't heard about significantly receded though, just a little with him.
He's also been known as a night time grinder. Used to occasionally wake me
from a sound sleep his grinding was so loud. Doesn't seem to do that much
anymore.
Did the dentist indicate if this is something new with Ellie and why he/she
thinks it's occurring?
Or offer any advise on treatment (if there is any)?
