About Gingivitis.

Gingivitis is a common, reversible inflammatory condition affecting the gingival tissues surrounding the teeth, representing the mildest and earliest form of periodontal disease.

It primarily occurs across pediatric and adult populations when dental plaque biofilm accumulates along the gingival margin, provoking a host localized immune response.

Pathophysiologically, microbial toxins and the inflammatory cascade induce vasodilation, vascular permeability, and tissue edema confined strictly to the gingiva without attachment loss or alveolar bone destruction.

Defining clinical features include erythema, edema, tenderness, and bleeding of the gums upon gentle probing or toothbrushing.
