Front Left Tooth gum recession?

I don't know when it had receded but I just noticed it a few minutes ago.
I normally try to take very good care of my teeth: I brush twice a day with an electronic tooth-brush, floss once a day, and now I've been using an non-alcoholic mouth wash because I get dry mouth. The only new thing I've introduced to my regime is actually the mouth wash (it's Act Fluoride Brand Dry Mouth alcohol-free with Xylitol mouth wash.)
I also wear my retainers every night (since I was like 18) and brush them before popping them in my mouth. I've also been rinsing them with mouth wash 'cause I thought that would be a good idea.
I don't drink, smoke, or use drugs.
There is 0 pain, 0 swelling, and 0 bleeding. My tooth doesn't feel loose either. My gums have a uniform pink color as well. It's just that all of a sudden my left front tooth gum decided to take a trip upwards. My two front gums are usually uniform except for today I guess. I mean, is this serious? Is it an infection? I've been trying to get an appointment today for the last 3 hours.
I'm kind of freaking out.
