Dark gums are usually caused by hyperpigmentation, meaning that they contain an excess of melanin. This can be due to a genetic issue, but is more common in people with darker skin tones. Dark gums can also be caused by metal restorations, certain antibiotics, smoking and some systemic conditions. If you are unhappy with the way your gums look, you may be a candidate for gum bleaching.
