چکیده
Gingivitis is nothing but the inflammation of gingival soft tissue. Various forms of gingivitis have been described in various literatures. Although the clinical signs of gingivitis are easy to detect, it is not clear how much inflammation a person must have to be considered a gingivitis case. The prevalence and incidence of gingival diseases in individuals of different ages and socio-economic strata gives us a clear view of the association and distribution of etiological factors causing gingival and periodontal diseases. Current article summarizes the present World and Indian scenario of gingival diseases that will definitely help the dental professionals in their future diagnosis and treatment plan of periodontally compromised patients.
