Hello
First image shows space that's because of bone loss(if you see your gums are moving downwards)
This can occur due to various reasons including poor oral hygiene, traumatic bite (the way upper and lower teeth contact)
In your case, traumatic bite is the major cause of this spacing.
Second image shows deposits, you need professional cleaning so as to prevent further damage.
Next Steps
Visit a Periodontist (we specialize in treating gums and bone along with teeth)
so as to get thorough guidance and prevent further spacing.
Health Tips
Avoid hard brushing, your teeth are getting worn out.
