What is the reason for the redness of children's teeth during the teething period?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

This consideration is due to the stimulation caused by tooth eruption. There may also be some gingivitis, but if there is no obvious bleeding, it is generally not a major issue. Of course, parents should observe whether it is only part of the gums that are red. If the gums in the entire mouth are like this, then it can be considered that it is not inflammation. This is a physiological response of cellular congestion, and it is generally not a major issue.
