Dark gums 1 Year, 3 Months ago Karma: 0  
Hi, my gums are very dark brown. There is no bleeding or halitosis, so no outward indications of disease. What could be causing this problem? I had normal pink gums a year ago.

Hi Ichtaca
Gum color change can be caused due to pigmentation.
Here is a site which gives the details and also the treatment. http://www.dentalgentlecare.com/gum_tissue_color_change.htm

As recommended by the site you could try out laser ablation treatment as it is most effective and reliable.

That's a relief. Its not as serious as I thought! Or are there possibilities that it is due to something else? I shall enquire about doing what you have suggested. Thanks!

Well changes in gum colour is associated with smoking. Not very serious. Still you should consult your dentist for your peace of mind
