Introduction
Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile. When gums become red, swollen, or tender, it’s a sign of inflammation — and this should never be ignored. Inflamed gums can be an early warning of gum disease, which, if left untreated, can lead to tooth loss and even affect your overall health.
At Dr. Gogia’s Super Specialty Dental Care Centre, we believe that prevention and early intervention are the keys to gum health.

What Are Inflamed Gums?
Inflamed gums occur when the soft tissues around your teeth become swollen, red, and sensitive due to plaque, bacteria, or injury. This condition is medically known as gingivitis in its early stage, and if untreated, it may progress to periodontitis.

3. Hormonal Changes– Pregnancy, puberty, menopause can make gums sensitive.
4. Vitamin Deficiency– Especially Vitamin C (scurvy risk).
5. Smoking or Tobacco Use – Delays healing and damages gum tissue.
6. Medical Conditions – Diabetes, HIV, or other immune-related diseases.
7. Medications – Some cause gum overgrowth or dryness.
