My bottom and side gums just recently started turning blackish/brown like 6 months ago
I haven't told anyone because I think they would be repulsed and I wouldn't want people talking about it
I'm 17 and I would really want to tell my parents but I'm scared they would be very angry because I smoke marijuana from time to time and I've never smoked a ciggarrette in my life, there starting to kind of turn pinkish again in the middle but other than that there's no improvements and when I brush they bleed a lot and hurt

I live in Canada Bc, and would most likely not be able to fly anywhere for treatment and I really don't want to tell anyone about this.. is there anything me, myself can do (home remedy), its been months and I don't want to get the news of having gum disease which I'm sure might be the case help please?

If you are brushing well, flossing every day and rinsing with an antibacterial rinse and see no change you really should see your dentist.

I live in BC too, seems everyone is smoking pot here! Well first you should stop that because it's bad for your lungs/gums/brain etc. Brush, floss, limit sugar (like in coffee, pop, candy, gum, potato chips etc) Listerine can help stop gingivitis (bleeeding) Go to the dentist and they should be able to tell you if its anything serious (like periodontal disease)
