Clinical Information
- Gingivitis-. inflammation of gum tissue (gingiva) without loss of connective tissue.
- Gingivitis, Necrotizing Ulcerative-. an acute or chronic gingivitis characterized by redness and swelling, necrosis extending from the interdental papillae along the gingival margins, pain; hemorrhage, necrotic odor, and often a pseudomembrane. the condition may extend to the oral mucosa; tongue; palate; or pharynx. the etiology is somewhat unclear, but may involve a complex of fusobacterium nucleatum along with spirochetes borrelia or treponema.
- Gingiva-. oral tissue surrounding and attached to teeth.
- Chronic Gingivitis-. chronic painless inflammation of the gums. it is characterized by erythema and edema of the gums and bleeding while brushing the teeth.
- Gingivitis-. a disorder involving inflammation of the gums; may affect surrounding and supporting structures of the teeth.
- Necrotizing Ulcerative Gingivitis|Vincent Angina|Vincent's Angina-. a bacterial infectious process affecting the gums. it is characterized by the development of necrotic, ulcerated, and painful lesions with creation of pseudomembranes extending along the gingival margins.

Patient Education
Gum Disease
If you have gum disease, you're not alone. Many U.S. adults currently have some form of the disease. It ranges from simple gum inflammation, called gingivitis, to serious damage to the tissue and bone supporting the teeth. In the worst cases, you can lose teeth.
In gingivitis, the gums become red and swollen. They can bleed easily. Gingivitis is a mild form of gum disease. You can usually reverse it with daily brushing and flossing and regular cleanings by a dentist or dental hygienist. Untreated gingivitis can lead to periodontitis. If you have periodontitis, the gums pull away from the teeth and form pockets that become infected. If not treated, the bones, gums and connective tissue that support the teeth are destroyed.
