Red spots on gums: These are local irritations. Could be trauma from something hard you chewed. Could be tooth brush trauma. Are you seeing spots anywhere else? Check your tongue.

Get it checked: red lesions are not normal, get it checked....could be pathology, draining tooth abscess or a gum abscess

Needs examination: Could be anything from capillaries near the mucosal surface, to area of burn or trauma, or indication of gum or tooth infection, or one of many other causes. Please call your Dentist for an examination if for no other reason than peace of mind.
