setting permission to 0755 recursive :
$chmod -R 0755 directory_NameHere

To find all files in /home/user/demo directory
$ find /home/user/demo -type f -print

To find all files in /home/user/demo directory with permission 777, enter:
$ find /home/user/demo -type f -perm 777 -print

Apply new permission using the -exec option as follows:
$ find /home/user/demo -type f -perm 777 -print -exec chmod 755 {} \;

To select directories and subdirectories use the following syntax:
$ find /var/www/html -type d -perm 777 -print -exec chmod 755 {} \;
