Online Dental Insurance, Brushing and Bleeding Gums.
I know I do not brush as often as I should. But I do brush and floss my teeth. However lately I notice that when I brush my teeth now my gums start to bleed. What I can I do to stop my gums from bleeding when I brush.
Answer: If you are not brushing your teeth twice a day for at least two minutes then you need to start doing so. Good dental habits include brushing twice a day and flossing daily. In addition to using mouthwash that kills germs and fights plaque.
It sound like to me you have not been having good dental habits and may not be developing gingivitis, which is why your gums are bleeding. Start today by having good at home dental habits and see a dentist to have a dental checkup and a good teeth cleaning.
