Desquamative Gingivitis


Desquamative gingivitis is a serious condition in which the outer layers of the gums separate from the underlying tissue, exposing nerve endings. The gums become so loose that the outer layers can actually be rubbed away with as little as a cotton swab.


Desquamative gingivitis occurs mainly in postmenopausal women. Women over the age of 45 should watch their mouths carefully for signs of gingivitis, especially changes in gum color or appearance and tenderness. Symptoms of desquamative gingivitis include red gums that are painful to the touch with white patches or coating and loose tissue. Knowing the signs of desquamative gingivitis will help you catch the disease early, and diligent oral hygiene can greatly reduce the effects and spread of the disease.
