#Gingivitis is the earliest and mildest form of the gum diseases, and it is characterized by redness and swelling of the gums. #Periodontitis refers to advanced periodontal disease. The gum tissue pulls away from the teeth, creating pockets where additional bacteria can build up and cause an infection. Symptoms: #Pain #Swelling #Bleeding #Spacing #BadBreath#LooseTeeth. Risk factors associated with gum disease: #Smoking#MedicalConditions #Stress #FamilyHistory #Genetics #Hormones.
