Yes, a two-year-old can develop gum disease, although it is less common than in older children and adults. Factors such as poor oral hygiene, a diet high in sugars, and certain medical conditions can contribute to the development of gingivitis or other periodontal issues even at a young age. Regular dental check-ups and good oral care practices are essential for preventing gum disease in young children.
