What Causes Rough Feeling On Gums?

I have a rough feeling along the front and partially on the right side of my upper gums. Upon visual inspection, I notice about 6 spots about the size of a pen tip, maybe a little bigger. The entire front section of my gums has a slight white tint to it. Any idea what this may be?
