WHY DON'T PATIENTS WITH GINGIVITIS KNOW OR BELIEVE THEY HAVE IT?

  • Many patients may not associate the signs of gingivitis with the presence of gum disease
  • Patients might think swollen and bleeding gums are normal

In addition, many patients do not understand the therapeutic role of mouth rinse in treating gingivitis.
