What are receding gums? Receding gums are gums that have pulled away from the surface of the tooth and crept away, exposing the root of the tooth. There are several different causes for receding gums that can result in sensitivity or even tooth loss. Because the gums help support the teeth, receding gums should not be taken lightly.
The Benefits. As an adult, two of the most significant benefits of your circumcision will be hygiene and sexual performance. Many (if not most) uncircumcised men assert that the hygienic benefit is at best questionable, but on this I can say from experience that they are wrong. The inner foreskin is a mucous membrane, and secrets fluids.
While some parents or men may choose circumcision as a reminder of the Old Testament covenant, others often make the decision based on health. Certain doctors believe circumcision to be healthy whereas others say it is not. Ultimately, the decision is between the believer and God.
