Black stain, visible gums & gaps

2018-11-07 03:38:00
There is black staining on teeth. Even though I do the cleaning process, it's happening again. Also when I smile a lot of the gum portion is visible. There are gaps in between the teeth too. Any solution to all these?

Black staining would be extrinstic ...Will go after professional oral prophylaxis (scaling and polishing). For the other two problems plz seek consultation with an orthodontist...it problems would be permanently solved after taking orthodontic treatment.
