- As age progresses and due to certain other factors like poor oral hygiene and hard brushing..Gum can recede from this actually position leading exposure of sensitive part of the tooth known as gingival recesion.In that case a technique called Stillman's is recommended.This is a slight modification of the bass method but this gives gingival massage and stimulation.
