Prevention – What Is Gingivitis?
Gingivitis can be defined as inflammation of the gingival tissue without loss of tooth attachment. Gingivitis can be prevented through regular oral hygiene that includes daily brushing and flossing. Gingivitis is an inflammation of the gums surrounding the teeth. Gingivitis is one of many periodontal diseases that affect the health of the periodontium (those tissues that surround the teeth and include the gums, soft tissues, and bone).
Gingivitis is an infection that occurs when bacteria invade soft tissues, bone, and other places that bacteria should not be. Gingivitis is an inflammation of the gums caused by plaque and bacteria accumulation. Simple gingivitis is controlled by proper oral hygiene with or without an antibacterial mouth rinse. Gingivitis is an extremely common disease in which the gums become red and swollen and bleed easily.
