    Brown Gums?? Is there no hope?
    I am an african american girl and my gums have turned dark in a few areas around the gumline because I was a smoker. Now that I have quit I am wondering if there is anything I can do to restore them to a healthy pink color or am I doomed to have dark gum spots forever? I never heard of gum bleaching only teeth bleaching. I don't know if they will turn back pink since there is no more smoking. Any ideas or treatments:D ?-

    Hi -- I am also african american and I was embarrassed when I smiled by the dark patches on my gums... so I went to a specialist... my recommendation for you would be to go seek treatment -- I went to dr. farnoosh in beverly hills, ca -- I travelled from Missouri to see him because he invented the procedure --- you can see his website below:
