Red, swollen, or bleeding gums are more than an annoyance. They can be early signs of gum disease, a common condition in which bacteria inflame the tissue supporting your teeth. Left untreated, it can progress and eventually lead to bone loss and loose teeth, so early attention makes a real difference. Risk factors include poor oral hygiene, smoking, and certain health conditions, so your history matters.
