Ontstoken gums
Inflamed gums, also called gingivitis, is a common condition characterized by red, swollen and bleeding gums. It is essential to treat inflamed gums in a timely manner to prevent more serious problems, such as periodontal disease.
Why is it important to treat inflamed gums?
Inflamed gums can lead to serious gum disease and tooth loss if not treated in time. Furthermore, it can have a negative effect on your overall health.
