Hello,
Read your query , as you have enlarged gingivae dont be worried so much be relaxed I will suggest you to consult Periodontist specialist and go for oral examination of gingivae if you have gingival enlargement then go for its treatment oral prophylaxis or gingivectomy , after treatment of gums then if you have spacing then go for orthodontist for orthodontic treatment.
Hope this will help you.
