Gingivitis is the most common cause of red, swollen gums. Poor dental hygiene causes gingivitis, a minor form of gum disease. Bacteria and plaque build up around the gums when you don't brush or floss regularly. Plaque irritates the gums, resulting in a swollen, red appearance.
Dental caries are permanently damaged areas in the teeth that develop into tiny holes. Common causes include sipping sugary drinks / eating sweets/ snacking often, poor oral hygiene and bacterial accumulation.
