It occurs when plaque, a sticky film of bacteria, builds up on the teeth and gums. While it\u2019s more common in adults, children can also develop gum disease, especially if they have poor oral hygiene.[\/vc_column_text][nectar_btn size=”medium” open_new_tab=”true” button_style=”regular” button_color_2=”Accent-Color” icon_family=”none” text=”Download PDF” url=”https:\/\/brand2d.tech\/gerties\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Acne.pdf”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” equal_height=”yes” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_image=”148″ bg_position=”left top” background_image_loading=”default” bg_repeat=”no-repeat” scene_position=”center” bottom_padding=”5%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”padding-3-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color=”#faebff” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”15px” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][vc_custom_heading text=”Symptoms” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left|color:%23000000″ use_theme_fonts=”yes”]
Signs of gum disease in children may include:
\n\u2022 Red, swollen, or tender gums
\n\u2022 Bleeding gums, especially during brushing or flossing
\n\u2022 Persistent bad breath
\n\u2022 Receding gums (the gums pull away from the teeth)

Gum disease in children is usually caused by:
\n\u2022 Poor oral hygiene, which allows plaque and tartar (hardened plaque) to accumulate
\n\u2022 Hormonal changes during puberty, making gums more sensitive to irritation
\n\u2022 Certain medical conditions, like diabetes, that can increase susceptibility
\n\u2022 Genetic factors, where a family history of gum disease raises the risk <\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”padding-3-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color=”#efffeb” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”15px” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/3″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][vc_custom_heading text=”Diagnosis” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left|color:%23000000″ use_theme_fonts=”yes”]
At Gertrude\u2019s Children\u2019s Hospital, our pediatric dental team diagnoses gum disease by:
\n\u2022 Examining the gums for redness, swelling, or signs of bleeding
\n\u2022 Measuring the depth of pockets between the teeth and gums using a gentle probe
\n\u2022 Reviewing the child\u2019s oral hygiene habits and medical history

Treating gum disease in children focuses on stopping the infection and restoring gum health. Our approach includes:
\n\u2022 Professional cleanings: Removing plaque and tartar to allow the gums to heal.
\n\u2022 Scaling and root planing: A deep cleaning procedure to eliminate bacteria below the gumline.
\n\u2022 Antibacterial treatments: Using medicated mouth rinses or topical antibiotics to fight infection.
\n\u2022 Education and guidance: Teaching children proper brushing and flossing techniques to prevent recurrence.
\nFor severe cases, we work with periodontists (gum specialists) to provide advanced care. <\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ background_image=”1271″ background_image_position=”center center” background_image_stacking=”default” enable_bg_scale=”true” background_image_loading=”default” column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_content” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” equal_height=”yes” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” disable_element=”yes” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” top_padding=”5%” constrain_group_1=”yes” bottom_padding=”5%” text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all” css=”.vc_custom_1725703896578{background-color: #fff1eb !important;border-radius: 10px !important;}”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”padding-5-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”left-right” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][vc_custom_heading text=”Treatment Options” font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%23000000″ use_theme_fonts=”yes”]
