What does it mean when your bottom gums are white?

Do you chew tobacco?: White areas in the mouth are tricky to diagnose, especially when not even viewing them intraorally. A fungal infection shows up as white in the mouth, so does thickening of the gum layer due to friction or trauma. Or if you place chew in your bottom lip, that could do it also. Please see your dentist.
