Is it okay to delay gum surgery until June or should I get it done sooner Also are black gums something to be really worried about health-wise
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Delaying gum surgery can lead to more severe conditions and increased treatment complexity, while black gums can be a symptom of gum disease or other health issues.
