I am reading from those sites that gum pain can also be a symptom of iron deficiency and also B12 deficiency
Yes it could an issue of low mineral status .

Also, if bread and fruit would have been the cause, I would think that these symptoms would have shown up years ago. I eat less refined/processed food today than I ever have in my life.
If you're eating close to a fruitarian diet ...... the following may be of your interest.
FRUIT - FRIEND OR FOE - Dr. Stanley Bass: My experiences with fruit

Quote:
He told me about his experiences while following Arnold Ehret, which led to deficiencies in his diet. He once went on a grape cure, recommended by Johanna Brandt. He lived on nothing but grapes, cases of them for about 35 days. He ate pounds of them at each meal. By the 32nd day, his gum was bleeding, and his teeth loosened in their sockets. He said that one of his teeth fell out of his mouth. He exclaimed, "My God, I am detoxicating my teeth."
