Your gums have receded. You can stop it by getting a scaling done by your dentist to remove the hard valculus deposits which cause gums to move away

Yes.Your gums have started recession. You might have a deep bite.  So have to consult an orthodontist for correction of deep bite. Also you have calculus ( deposits)  in your teeth. That is also one of the reason for this. So go to a dentist and clean your teeth first.
