Periodontitis ?: If you have periodontal disease, it needs to be treated by a local dentist or dental specialist (periodontist). Your post did not say if you are currently being treated... if not,, DO NOT attempt to treat this on your own. You will regret it in the long run when you start loosing your teeth and realize that replacing those teeth costs more than professionally treating them now. All the best...

Gum disease: Bleeding gums while flossing can be a sign that you are at risk for, or already have, gum disease. The bacteria and other particles, constantly form a sticky, colorless toxic “plaque” on teeth causing the gums to become inflamed and to easily bleed. This is a serious problem, which should be checked by a dentist. The good news is that this condition is curable. Call your dentist today!

Depends: Depends on how advanced your gum problem is. Flossing daily is extremely important, keep it up. In the meantime call your Dentist for treatment or referral to a Periodontist, a gum specialist, to help you return your gums to optimum health, and for instructions on how to keep them that way.
