Once you wake up late, you’re rushing to get out of the house. You throw on clothes from a pile in your laundry basket, brush your hair as best as you can in 30 seconds, and grab the mouthwash instead of taking the next few minutes to brush your teeth.

Instead of ignoring the obvious signs of a dental problem, why not seek treatment from your Waco dentist? You may think your issue is sensitivity, when all the while it could really be gum recession.
