Brief Answer:
It could be due to plaque

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

It could be due to plaque. It could also be due to vitamin C, vitamin D or calcium deficiency. It may also be due to genes. Please upload a photo of the gap so that I am better able to help.
I think a dentist will be able to help you with it.
