hello Hello, gum problems could be because of deposits on teeth surface or food lodged in between teeth. Visit a dentist and get your scaling and polishing done. Brush your teeth twice daily. Night brushing is very important. Floss regularly. Rinse after every meal. Visit dentist every 6 months.

Black point can be because of something that is lodged in your gum . Mayb something that you ate has deposited in your gum . So just wait for 1-2days . Else you can go to a dentist and he can remove that black deposit .
