My gum is a little white/pale, 3 months after crown attached to my dental implant. Any suggestions?

PAguy19102
I had a crown screwed onto the implant 3 months ago, The Dentist had to tighten it and the gum was very white. She said it would get better, and it has. However, it is still a little white/pale. Should it be pink/red and does this mean that the gum is not getting enough blood flow? Is this bad, or okay and there won't be any permanent damage? Thank you.
