Gingivitis is early-stage gum disease caused by plaque buildup, showing as red, swollen gums that bleed during brushing. At this stage there is no bone loss yet.
It is fully reversible with professional cleaning and consistent oral care. Untreated, it can progress to periodontitis and permanent tissue loss.
