See Your Dentist: It sounds like some of your teeth are a bit out of position. That can cause gum problems. Your dentist can treat your gums and advise you what else is needed.

Eruption cyst: Likely the bubble that forces its way ahead of the erupting tooth. Should resolve once the underlying tooth breaks the surface. If it does not improve, see the Dentist for examination, diagnosis and Tx. Good LUck.
