Bleeding gums is a sign of gingivitis/ periodontitis.
Spots on gums are normal melanin pigments provided you do not consume tobacco. Visit dentist for ultrasonic scaling every 6 months.

Yellow tooth implies deposits, you might need a professional cleaning.
Black spots on gums , this might be normal pigmentation or might be due to smoking ( if you smoke). It should be noted only when there is irritation or pain or presence of ulcer.
Single tooth mobility shows it is infected badly by caries and there is perapical abscess. It can be treated by RCT or extraction whichever needed depending on IOPA xray.
Bleeding gums shows, gingivitis. Please use soft brush and follow the correct brushing technique. Brush twice daily and clean your tongue every day.
Use salt water gargle or mouthwashes for 1 week following the professional cleaning.
Next Steps
Visit the Dentist and confirm the condition mentioned above and undergo the treatment plan accordingly.
Health Tips
