What Do White,circular Cuts On Bottom Gums Indicate?
In front of my bottom gums there are 3 little white, circular cuts on the way inside of my bottom lip. The capillaries in my bottom lip are all bright red. There is no pus but I am unsure what may be happening. I smoked for about a year on and off never in higher quanity than a pack every week or longer.

Hello! I have been through your query.
You need not worry too much about it.
You did not mention how long these are present. You must be suffering from aphthous ulcers.
Go for a spice free diet.
Have healthy ,stress free life style.
You can use a analgesic gel like Gumtone over the area.
Make sure your diet contains required vitamins to make sure you are not deficient.
Take B complex and folic acid supplements.
Regards.
