I went to the dentist and he havent said anything about recession also when i google recession it looks way worse than mine , dentist told me its plaque
Visit a periodontist. And simply just look the gum line border . It's common thing . Gum recession of Maxillary posterior premolar region . Google always tells the worse about any disease or symtoms

Just search 2 week ulcer = cancer ( according to google )


Do not use Google for any health related thing whether it's medicine or disease . Few thing GUM ISSUE = PERIODONTIST
TEETH ISSUE = ENDODONTIST
JAW ISSUE = MAXILLOFACIAL
BITE ISSUE = ORTHODONTIST
IMPLANT = ORTHODONTIST or IMPLANTOLOGIST

etc . When it's about dental issue first CONSULT PERIODONTIST . general dentist misdiagnose few things ( specially clinical one ) .

Ok i doubt i have one in my country , probably knowing me ,i wont do anything since my 'problem' doesnt seem dangerous , i havent even noticed recession on my gums i still dont see it but im not dentist or anything similar so ...Ill just wait and see if my gums start receding more or it stays the same
Google always does that , i hate that ,than i worry even more, but there are forums that are reliable if not sites

Take gum disease seriously even it looks normal . Gum disease can cause devastating outcomes like severe palatal abcesse or Infection which might also cause chronic sinus infection , or it can cause recurrent soar throat etc

Even celucitis , to deep neck Infection and sometimes meningitis to septemia these all can be caused by simple looking dental gum or teeth issue .

It's not a gum problem - there appears to be no inflammation. The pic is fuzzy, so could be a stain or small decay.
