Abstract
This chapter reviews gingivitis and acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis. In mild gingivitis the patient’s gums bleed easily and become red and swollen with increased sensitivity. As symptoms worsen, the gums begin to recede and become more inflamed. Further progression leads to acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis which is associated with severe pain of the gums, foul taste and halitosis. Mild cases are treated with oral rinse, while severe cases require antibiotics.
