I take really good care of my teeth but within the last 2 and a half weeks my gums have been sore and have been bleeding even when they are not being brushed. I have even tried using a soft brush and that is too hard on my teeth, I have had to start using a toodlers toothbrush. I am a 20 year old female, what could be the cause of it?
Hello there... There are many reasons for gum bleeding. Most frequent reason being deposits that get accumulated over the tooth. These deposits get accumulated and causes inflammation of the gums. Even on slight stimulation and sometimes spontaneously you would have bleeding from the gums. These deposits doesn't go with regular brushing...hence we advise scaling (teeth cleaning) for every 6 months... That not only keeps your teeth clean but keeps your gums healthy... Get your teeth cleaned your problem would spontaneously come down...
