The study aims to investigate the genetic cause of the variability between individuals seen in the development of the gum disease, gingivitis. This will be carried out through a 3 week programme where all oral hygiene is ceased, allowing 'experimental gingivitis' to develop, followed by a period of recovery when tooth cleaning is restored. Clinical assessments and biological samples will be taken during the course of the study for further analysis.
