How to Recognize Symptoms of Gingivitis

Gingivitis (gum inflammation) is a problem that causes gums become swollen, sensitive, and bleeds easily.

Gingivitis is a common problem and is triggered by bacteria.

While not serious, if left untreated, gingivitis can lead to more serious problems.

Occurrence of Gingivitis


Dental plaque is the cause of gingivitis. Plaque is a coating that forms on teeth and consists mostly of bacteria.

Plaques begin to appear when foods containing sugar and starch mixed with bacteria in the mouth.

Plaque can be removed by brushing, but can form again in no time.

If not cleaned for 2 or 3 days, it will begin to harden plaque below the gum line and becomes tartar.

Bacteria then thrive in tartar and begin to irritate the gum section known as the gingiva.

Effect

Bacteria in the tartar will make the gums bleed easily when brushing your teeth.

Bleeding gums are the most common sign of gingivitis.

At first, gingivitis will not cause pain. But over time, the gums will become swollen and feels soft (soft).

The gums will change color from pink to blood red and generally out while brushing teeth.

Decreased production of saliva can increase the risk of gingivitis. Decrease in saliva can be triggered partly by the use of anti-depressant.

Virus infection is also responsible for most cases of gingivitis, as well as a variety of diseases such as leukemia and immune deficiency.

Poor diet and nutritional deficiencies such as calcium, vitamin C, and B, also promotes gingivitis.

Consideration

If left untreated, gingivitis can turn into periodontitis, in which bacteria attack the gum tissue and even bone.

Periodontitis can cause tooth loss. In fact, if the bacteria get into the bloodstream could occur increasing the risk of heart attack or stroke.

Prevention / Solution

Brushing your teeth at least twice a day can prevent gingivitis.

Use a toothbrush with soft bristles and try to always be replaced every 4 months maximum.

Flossing will also use dental floss to clean bacteria from hard to reach places.
Gingivitis (gum inflammation) is generally triggered by poor dental hygiene.

Redness, inflammation, and swelling of the gums are early signs of gum disease and can cause problems or complications if left untreated.

Gingivitis can occur both in men and women of all age groups, though most often found in adults.

Gingivitis affects the tissues that surround the teeth, and can cause infections, tooth decay and even tooth loss.

Gingivitis risk will increase with malnutrition, including deficiencies of vitamins and sugar consumption too much.

Here's how to recognize the symptoms of gingivitis.

1. Brush your teeth with normal pressure.

If pain or bleeding occurs, you may experience early symptoms of gingivitis.

2. Note the bad breath.

Bad breath is actually quite common and is something that is normal. Only in case of chronic bad breath, it's likely a symptom of gingivitis.

3. Note the pain of the gums or gums that turned soft.

Pain when brushing teeth, eating or drinking need to consider. Some people feel more severe pain when drinking soda.

The sick gums or feel tender or are a sign of gingivitis.

4. Note any buildup of plaque on the teeth.

The buildup of plaque can lead to gingivitis (gum inflammation), as well as a source of bacteria and infection

  3. I'm 57 years old and female. I was diagnosed a couple of years ago with COPD and I was beyond scared! My lung function test indicated 49% capacity. After having had flu a year ago, the shortness of breath, coughing and chest pains continued even after being treated with antibiotics. I've been smoking two packs a day for 36 years. Being born without a sternum caused my ribs to be curled in just one inch away from my spine, resulting to underdeveloped lungs. At age 34 I had surgery and it was fixed. Unfortunately my smoking just caused more damage to my already under developed lungs. The problem was having is that I enjoy smoking and don't want to give up! Have tried twice before and nearly went crazy and don't want to go through that again. I saw the fear in my husband and children's eyes when I told them about my condition then they start to find solution on their own to help my condition.I am an 57 now who was diagnose COPD emphysema which I know was from my years of smoking.
