Sign in to saveAlso known as acute gingivitis, chronic gingivitis, gingivaitis
Entzündung des marginalen Zahnfleisches
Gingivitis is an inflammation of the gums caused most commonly by bacterial buildup (plaque) on tooth surfaces. It matters because it's the most common form of gum disease, though it doesn't permanently damage the gums like more severe periodontal diseases can.
