Why is my gum red around that tooth? It is bothering me a lot. And why do my back molars have those white spots on them? Is this a sign of bad dental health? I have not been to a dentist since 2018 and currently cannot find a dentist that isn’t booked 6+ months out.

Where are you located to not have a dentist be available? We cannot diagnose without a clinical exam and x-rays. If the x-rays are negative then the white spots will be hypo-mineralization and the red gums is gingivitis. However, the x-rays could also show deep internal decay and possible bone damage which is why you need to see an available dentist.
