Answers:

Do you floss? Very important to floss and massage the gums everyday to prevent caries, gum disease and gingivitis. You may have brushed too hard, maybe too hard of bristles in toothbrush, maybe traumatized tissues by exerting too much pressure while brushing. Press on the gums near the toothline and quickly remove your finger. If it remains whitish for longer than a second or two, you may have the beginnings of gum disease. See your dentist as it will only get worse. There are procedures he can do to prevent further damage.
