something wrong with my gums :(

My whole pregnancy my gums have been swollen and tender.. i figured it was common.. but now at 37weeks it seems like their getting loose. like in my bottom front theres a little flap that goes down and i can kinda see my root.. doesnt hurt but its scary.. gums are still swollen and the dentist said they cant do anything due to being pregnant so i have to wait.. but i need to know what this is its scaring me

I haven't ever experienced that in my first pregnancy or this one but my mom used to be a hygentist and she said its really common.
