It dosent hurt n it is a grownup tooth.... Is it gingavitous (can't spell) because it is only one tooth

Answers:

Gingivitis usually effects more than just 1 spot in a mouth. See your dentist and see if there might be some type of infection or if food (like a popcorn kernel) may have gotten stuck down there. No matter what it is you need to see your dentist and figure out what is going on to make sure it is not something really bad.
