Vincent's Stomatitis (Trench mouth) is a painful form of gingivitis which can be caused by inadequate oral hygiene, poor nutrition, smoking, tooth or mouth infections and stress. It leads to painful, reddened and swollen gums which can bleed profusely. It can result in a gray film on the gums, ulcers between the teeth and bad breath.
