What can be done to stop blood coming from teeth ?

See dentist: Do you mean bleeding from the gums around your teeth? This would be gingivitis or periodontal disease and would need a dentist for treatment. Schedule an appointment for an exam and find out what is going on in your mouth.

Unusual: Bleeding from a tooth is highly unusual. In fact, it is so unusual that you want to make sure it is (or it is not) bleeding from the tooth. Bleeding from a tooth only occurs commonly during treatment when removal of diseased tooth structure involves live root canal system. Please see a dentist to clarify this. Oral bacteria infect the body via bleeding spots--they are portal to systemic infection.

See your dentist: If you mean that your gums bleed easily, then this means you have gum disease and you need to be evaluated to see what is the appropriate treatment.
