Gum Sweling
What is it?
Gum swelling is a common dental condition that occurs when the gum tissue becomes inflamed, tender, or enlarged. Swollen gums are often a sign of infection, gum disease, plaque buildup, or irritation caused by food particles or dental appliances. In some cases, gum swelling may also indicate an underlying dental or oral health issue.
​
