Common causes of gum disease include plaque and tartar buildup, poor oral hygiene, and genetic predisposition. What is Gum Disease? Gum disease, or periodontal disease, is a condition where the gums become inflamed due to plaque buildup. This harmful layer on your teeth and gum line can turn into tartar if not removed. When it does, it can cause your gums to swell and get infected. There are different stages of this disease ranging from mild gingivitis to severe periodontitis.
