Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.
Actually the redness in the gums are caused by infection in the gums. In your case there can be two possibilities
- first it can be possible that the veneer you have got done on your tooth is causing the allergic reaction.
-second it can be possible that you are a mouth breather, actually in mouth breathers the gums are red because of constant irritation from air and constant exposure to air.
You have to consult a good periodontist who will examine it properly and treat the problem accordingly.
Hope it will help you.
