Trench mouth is a severe gum infection caused by a buildup of bacteria in the mouth. It’s characterized by painful, bleeding gums and ulcers in the gums.

mouth naturally contains a balance of healthy bacteria, fungi, and viruses. However, poor dental hygiene can cause harmful bacteria to grow. Red, sensitive, and bleeding gums are symptoms of a condition known as gingivitis. Trench mouth is a rapidly progressing form of gingivitis.

The term trench mouth can be traced back to World War I, when it was common for soldiers to experience severe gum problems because they didn’t have access to dental care while in battle. It’s formally known as:

Vincent stomatitis
acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis
necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis

Trench mouth is most common in teenagers and younger adults. It’s a serious condition, but it’s rare. It’s most common in underdeveloped nations and areas with poor nutrition and living conditions.
