Hello, depigmentation- it is procedure to remove pigment like melanin from skin/mucosa.gum pigmentation, I suppose its some discolored gum in your case. No toothpaste can solve your problem. But lasers can be used to get the pigments removed. note-these pigmented areas may get corrected by itself. As sometimes hormonal changes causes increased pigmentation.u can have biopsy done of the lesion if it is troubling you.and get the lesion diagnosed by oral diagnosis specialist. My advice will be maintained a healthy diet, good oral hygiene. don't worry about such small areas. But if you notice any change in senses perception/pain in region consult specialist immediately.do gum massages with astringents as they help in constriction of blood vessels and may correct the gum problem.
