Bleeding Gum

Bleeding gums can be a sign that you have or may develop gum disease. Ongoing gum bleeding may be due to plaque buildup on the teeth. It can also be a sign of a serious medical condition.

Causes

The main cause of bleeding gums is the buildup of plaque at the gum line. This will lead to a condition called gingivitis, or inflamed gums.

Plaque that is not removed will harden into tartar. This will lead to increased bleeding and a more advanced form of gum and jaw bone disease known as periodontitis.

Other causes of bleeding gums include:

  • Any bleeding disorders.
  • Brushing too hard.
  • Hormonal changes during pregnancy.
  • Ill-fitting dentures or other dental appliances.
  • Improper flossing.
  • Infection, which can be either in a tooth or the gum.
  • Leukaemia, a type of blood cancer.
  • Scurvy, a vitamin C deficiency.
  • Use of blood thinners.
  • Vitamin K deficiency.

How to stop gums from bleeding

  • Using gauze.
  • Using ice.
  • Using mouthwash.
  • Using a warm salt rinse.
  • Applying a turmeric paste.
  • Using the right toothbrush.
  • Flossing every day, but be gentle.
  • Avoiding smoking.
