Hi, a long time ago, I noticed a red streaky spot above the tooth. Is it worth the worry? Would it be better to go to a dentist or a periodontist? Maybe someone has knowledge and advice? Nothing bleeds, nothing hurts, only redness. Could it be just vascular? When press on it, it kind of disappears.

Seems like nothing to worry about. Most likely just a difference in vascularity in the area, due to a difference in your attached gingiva.
