Gingivitis is an early stage of periodontal disease. If left untreated, gingivitis can lead to periodontitis, a more serious and chronic form of periodontal disease. Gingivitis is caused by bacteria that collect around your teeth and gums. These bacteria irritate your gums and cause them to swell, which in turn can lead to red and bleeding gums. As these diseases progress, the bacteria will travel down and attack the bone that supports your teeth. If left untreated, they can cause your teeth to become loose and may eventually lead to tooth loss.
