I have black gum which is not suitable for my skin colour. My smile has a major portion of gums. So suggest some homemade remedies for brightening gum faster within a month.

Hello lybrate-user, black gums is due to natural skin pigmentation, there are no known home remedies for it. There are two lines of treatment to manage this, 1. A minor procedure called gingival depigmentation can be done, results semi permanent, as we can not alter body's natural mechanism of making melanin pigmentation. 2. As you mention most of your smile is gums, we can do cosmetic procedure and make the teeth appear longer by removing a small calculated portion of the gums, and hence make them less apparent. A combination of both these procedures will ensure best results. Hope it helps!
