Question

What are the causes of red gums during the tooth replacement period in children?

Answer

This is due to the irritation caused by the eruption of the teeth, and there may also be some gingivitis. However, if there is no obvious bleeding, it’s generally not a big problem. Of course, parents should observe if only a part of the gums is red. If the entire mouth is affected, it might not be inflammation. This is a physiological response of cellular congestion, and it’s generally not a serious issue.
