Hi,
How are you? Gingivitis or inflammation of the
gums is due
to the long-term effects of plaque deposits. Injury
to the gums from any cause, including overly vigorous brushing or flossing of the teeth, can also cause gingivitis. This presents with bleeding gums, bright red or red-purple appearance to gums, tenderness, mouth sores, and swollen gums. Have this checked by your dentist for proper evaluation. It is important that the inflammation is reduced. Take care and do keep us posted.
