Answer: 1
Gingivitis is the inflammation of the gums that is more common in children due to poor oral hygiene and accumulation of dental plaque. Periodontitis, on the other hand, is a more severe form of gum disease that typically occurs in adults due to prolonged or severe gingivitis. ANUG (Acute Necrotizing Ulcerative Gingivitis) is a specific type of severe gingival infection that is less common in children than gingivitis, and pericoronitis is an infection that occurs around the gum flap when a tooth is partially erupted, which is more common in teenagers and young adults.
