Bleeding
gums are a sign of inflammation or infection. Healthy gums do not bleed.
Brush and floss the area well. If bleeding persists for greater than 2 weeks
contact the dental office immediately for an appointment.
Inflammation
or Infection can lead to Gum Disease and tooth
loss. Bleeding gums can often be your first indication of inflammation or
infection. Early stages of Gum Disease are rarely painful, so bleeding gums
may be your only indication of Gum Disease!
