Healthy teeth are white, and gums are firm and pink, that fit tightly around the teeth.
Gum disease or gingivitis is a type of bacterial infection / inflammation of the tissues of the gums that support teeth.
It’s important to take gingivitis seriously and treat it promptly, as if left untreated, it can lead to a much more serious gum disease, called periodontitis.
The bacteria populate in a sticky film called plaque that form around the teeth and gums and if it is not removed will harden and becomes tartar that irritates and inflames the gums.
Plaque forms when starches and sugary foods interact with bacteria normally found in the mouth.
A gum infection is the primary reason for the bone and tooth loss in adults, if left untreated.
COMMON SYMPTOMS
- Bad breath.
- Irritation
- Swollen or puffy gums.
- Bright red or dark red gums, or gums that are darker than usual.
- Gums that bleed easily when you touch, brush or floss.

Common causes and Risk factors of Gingivitis
- The most common cause of gingivitis is not keeping your teeth and gums clean and healthy.
- Diet rich in refined sugars
- Poor dental hygiene.
- Plaque formation – a layer of bacteria and other organic matter that forms on the tooth.
- Repairs to teeth that don’t fit properly such as fillings, bridges, dental implants or veneers.
- Crooked teeth that are hard to clean.
- Smoking or chewing tobacco.
- Older age.
- Dry mouth.
- Poor nutrition, including not getting enough vitamin C.

SELF-CARE, DO’S AND DONT’S
- Good oral health habits, such as brushing at least twice a day, flossing daily and getting regular dental checkups, can help prevent and reverse gingivitis.
- To remove plaque teeth must be brushed for at least five minutes morning or night.
- Do not put water on the brush; the saliva in your mouth provides all the moisture needed.
- Too much paste or water only hamper the process of cleaning.
- Clean your mouth with water every time after you eat anything
- Cut down on sweets and carbohydrates.
- Dental check-up once in 6 months is a must.
