TLDR Dr. Laura Bennett, a dentist with over 10,000 hours of clinical experience, discusses gum recession and its causes, emphasizing that many believe it to be genetic when it is often a result of collagen deficiency due to poor nutrition. A Swedish study found that only 12% of families with early tooth loss had genetic markers, while 88% had collagen deficiencies related to their diets. As collagen is essential for gum health, its reduction with age can lead to gum recession and tooth loss. Dr. Bennett introduces CollaGum™, a brushing powder that delivers Type 1 bovine collagen peptides directly to the gums, aimed at restoring gum health without costly procedures. The product has received positive testimonials from users who experienced improvements in their gum conditions.
