Am I going to loose my teeth?

I recently went for a scale and polish and now all of my teeth are wobbly. I’m only 18 and I don’t want to loose my teeth! my gum has also receded on a few teeth, will I loose them? I’m so scared that I’m going to loose them. Is my gum receding because of the scale and polish or because my mouth can’t take it?
