Gingivitis: Bleeding gums can be a sign of gingivitis. In addition to good dental care, i'd suggest antiseptic mouth washes

No: No toothpaste will get rid of bleeding gums. Bleeding gums indicate that you have periodontal disease. This needs to be evaluated by your dentist to determine whether it is in the beginning stages, or more advanced. You may need just a deep cleaning, or you may need more thorough periodontal treatment.

See a dentist!!!: Bleeding gums are never to be ignored. Recent studies have linked bleeding gums to heart attack, stroke, diabetes, lung infections, certain cancers, a seven-time more likely chance of giving birth to premature and underweight babies, alzheimer's and lord knows, what else will be discovered! get to the dentist and find the cause and fix it!
