Good morning
Thanks for the Query
As per your words you are concerned about black pigmentation on your gums..
It's the normal physiological phenomenon..nothing to worry about that.
But if you are not happy esthetically than you can under go depigmentation procedure.
For the same Visit a Periodontist (Gum Specialist Dentist)..

Your gums just have melanin pigmentation. Nothing else. You should visit a periodontist. He/she will guide and treat you better

Colour of the gums depends upon the underlying pigment present in the skin,so you may see a dermatologist.
