Whitening and swelling of gums

If the gums show whitish soreness, it is generally considered to show gingivitis. Gingiva is one of the periodontal tissues, directly exposed to the mouth, visible directly. It is composed of keratinized epithelium and connective tissue, covering the alveolar bone and roots. Gingival disease is a disease limited to gingival tissue, the most common of which is chronic marginal gingivitis, also known as marginal gingivitis, simple gingivitis, belongs to gingivitis only related to dental plaque, is the most common disease in plaque gingivitis. Gingival inflammation is mainly located in free gums and gingival papilla, which is often referred to as gingivitis. Children aged three to five can occur, and the prevalence and severity increase gradually with age until puberty reaches its peak. Gingivitis is slightly more common in males than females in children and is higher in developing countries and regions than in economically developed countries. Plaque and harmful substances accumulated at the gingival-tooth junction over time act on the gums and cause inflammation. The presence of poor dental prostheses, food impaction, tooth dislocation crowding, and mouth breathing exacerbates plaque accumulation and inflammation of the gums. Among the main pathogens, the proportion of cocci decreased, the proportion of motile bacteria and spirochetes increased, and the gram-negative bacteria increased significantly. Actinomyces viscosus, Peptostreptococci, Clostridium nucleatum, and Preutzella intermedia were the dominant bacteria. Therefore, if you are unsure, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for examination.
