Gingivitis is due to the long-term effects of plaque deposits on your teeth. Plaque is a sticky material made of bacteria, mucus, and food debris that builds up on the exposed parts of the teeth. It is also a major cause of tooth decay. Gingivitis (inflammation of the gums) often does not cause any immediate symptoms. Yet it may spread to other parts of the periodontium (the bone and soft tissue responsible for keeping our teeth firmly anchored) and cause damage there. This is called periodontitis As a result, any gum disease caused by the build-up of plaque is masked due to the vasoconstrictive effect of the tobacco.
