Hello! Read your query. You did not mention the medicines you are taking for hypertension. Some medicines like calcium channel blockers and blood thinners will increase gum bleeding rarely. A poor oral hygiene will increase this incidence. You must get scaling done once every 6 months. Follow an oral hygiene routine of brushing(twice daily), flossing(once daily) and mouthwash(thrice per week). If this bleeding is significant, you must check with your physician for a change in the medication. Reg. Your mother, a poor oral hygiene reduces the gum position. This further reduces levels of bone attachment. This can be prevented by following a proper oral hygiene with good blood sugar levels.
