Suggest Treatment For Dark Colored Spot On Right Far End Gum
I have a dark colored spot on my right far end gum. Tissue is soft and painless but looks odd. Also I can notice a white patch as if a new tooth is starting to show. Have no pain at all. I was told when one ages discoloration or freckles can appear anywhere. Is a removal and byopsia only way to deal with it to have peace of mind? I am pretty healthy otherwise and do not smoke, or have any other problems...yet. Age 71. Thanks

hi,
it looks normal to me for your age. just needs a local examination further to rule out any pathology and your dentist may ask you to be on follow up for 1,3,6 and 12 months span
wish u a good health
