Gingivitis is the first stage of periodontal disease. It is an inflammation of the gum tissue caused by bacteria (although most bacteria in our mouth are harmless) Periodontal disease is when inflammation and infection destroy the tissues that support the teeth.

Gingivitis is caused by the long-term effects of plaque deposits. Plaque is a sticky material that develops on the teeth, consisting of bacteria, mucus, and food debris. Bacteria, and the toxins bacteria produce, cause the gums to become infected, swollen, and tender.

Unremoved plaque mineralizes into a hard porous deposit called tartar/calculus that becomes trapped at the base of the tooth.Bacteria will multiply there producing and keeping inflammation.

Between the root and the gum, a space develops (the gingival bag)  which is an ideal place  for bacteria to live. The more persistent the inflammation is,  the bigger will be the space.Oral hygiene will be more difficult. Thus, inflammation can easily spread into the jawbone. This will bring about the deterioration and destruction of the bone .Then the tooth will come loose and finally it will be lost.
