Definition
• Gingivitis is a form of gum disease characterised by reversible gingival inflammation without destruction of tooth-supporting tissues, periodontal ligament or bone

Signs • Redness
• Increased volume
• Change in texture
• Bleeding

Aetiology
• Bacterial: Formation of oral biofilm• Immuno-inflammatory response:
innate (nonspecific) and adaptive (specific)
• Genetic: family history• Habits: tobacco smoking, stress• Systemic diseases or conditions:
diabetes, pregnancy

Classification
•Plaque-induced gingival diseases
•Non-plaque-induced gingival diseases

Epidemiology
• Around 50-60% population > 35 years
• Up to 80% of children and adolescents

DiagnosisGINGIVITIS
Acute / Chronic Localised / generalised

Prevention Strategies• Mechanical biofilm removal:
• Manual or powered toothbrush: 2-3 times per day for at least 2 minutes
• Interdental hygiene: dental tape or floss and interproximal brushes
• Oral irrigators
• Professional cleaning: removal of calculus

Prevention Strategies• Chemical removal and/or alteration of biofilm:
• Toothpastes:• Cetylpyridinium chloride• Fluoride
• Mouthwashes:• Chlorhexidine• Cetylpyridinium chloride

Treatment• OH instruction and motivation:
plaque control• Eliminating poor habits: stop
smoking• Professional removal of biofilm:
using ultrasound, curettes, polishing
• Improving local and systemic conditions

Conclusions• Reversible inflammation
• Very common
• Mechanical and chemical prevention and treatment
• Role of oral healthcare professional is key
