Unfortunately there's nothing that can be done to grow back receding gums whether naturally or medically so nothing will work once your gums start to recede.

Oil pulling though does have benefits such as removing bacteria and preventing cavities and preventing your gums from further receding.

Also swishing sesame oil or coconut oil around in your mouth will help reduce plaque and gum inflammation.
