Gingivitis
Gingivitis: Introduction
Inflammation of the gums which causes them to become swollen and tender. The gums tend to bleed easily when the teeth are brushed. The condition is usually caused by food particles or plaque becoming trapped between the teeth and gums. The resulting bacteria cause the gums to become inflamed and can lead to serious dental damage if left untreated.
