    I am an african american and was recently treated for this---its common if you have darker skin to have pigmented gums...

    You you should contact a specialist who can help treat your dark gums... dentists / gum specialists / periodontists can help but most of them don't treat pigmented gums... so I looked extensively for someone that specializes in treating pigmented and dark gums... in the end I had my gums treated by Dr Farnoosh in beverly hills, Ca. This really helped me feel more comfortable smiling... he basically invented the procedure and was published extensively for it... I liked him he was very compassionate and it didn't hurt at all. He treats lots of celebrities in beverly hills...

    You might want to look at his website at this link (below):

    I have dark gums, a darker tongue than most and my lips went dark too! p.s. I'm not a smoker. I didn't think it was a problem. (I think I actually look prettier! )

    I have always had dark blotches on my gums which I felt always made me less pretty when I smiled, after reading about the gum lightening procedure here I flew from Atlanta to LA and saw Dr. Farnoosh to have the treatment. The blotches on my gums are now a more natural pink color. I am very happy I selected this treatment and Dr Farnoosh was very kind. I thought I would share... Thanks for everyone's posts.

    If anyone wants to see my before and after -- here is my case:

    OMD!! Look its easy! Right first you get your tooth brush. Wash it (No soap just leave it under some water) Then you get your tooth paste. Aply it to your tooth brush. Then brush your teeth. Do this every day for a month and your gums should be getting pinker. If not then youve got something wrong with your gums and go to a Dentist.

    You could try rubbing lemon and hot sauce on your gums before you go to sleep. It workes for me and I'm not african or a amoker I'm Caucasian and it works great my gums were black and then I tried this and now my gums are pretty and pink!! The lemon has natraul bleaching citrus acids and the hot sauce opens the gum pores so fhe acids can enter.
