I am not sure if it is my imagination,
but it looks like my gums is disappearing, leaving more of the tooth exposed. Is this possible or am I just being paranoid?

Hi Nathalie,

I have receding gums as well. It's been going on for a while now. My dentist added a clear filling in between the gum and the tooth. This is done to protect the tooth. I'm not sure if it's related to RA, but you never know. This disease attacks more than the joints.
