Periodontal Swelling & Gingival Overgrowth
Understanding Puffy, Swollen Gums
Swollen gums are a clear sign of inflammation. This is most often your body's response to an accumulation of bacterial plaque, but it can also be caused by other issues like an abscess or medication.

Common Causes of Swollen Gums
- Gingivitis: Plaque buildup irritates the gums, causing them to become swollen and inflamed.
- Dental Abscess: A localized infection can cause a significant, painful swelling on the gum near the affected tooth.
- Medication Side Effects: Certain drugs can cause the gum tissue to overgrow, a condition known as drug-induced gingival enlargement.
- Poor Nutrition: A deficiency in vitamins, especially Vitamin C, can contribute to gum swelling.
