Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC...

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns...

As per your complain a red dot and a line on front teeth seems to be on the gums and it can be due to a few reasons like:
-It can be a Traumatic Ulcer caused by injury with tooth brush or any hard food.
-It can be inflamed gum in that area as a result of infection in gums..
-It can also be a sinus formed due to infection in tooth lying in association with that gum..
You need not to worry as all the conditions are treatable and are common causes but you need to consult a Dentist for a confirmatory diagnosis and treatment can be done accordingly...

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
