See you dentist: The first thing you need to do is to see you dentist and have your teeth cleaned. Once allof teh tarter and debris are removed then the key to stopping the bleeding is you brushing and flossing ( or other device to clean between your teeth).

Routine: Everyday brush floss twice a day and see your dentist regularly for cleanings. If you have bleeding now, go now to see a dentist. Don't wait til it hurts.

Visit a dentist: If you experience bleeding gums when brushing and bad breath, it may be a sign that you are at risk for or already have gum disease. Gingivitis is a serious problem, which should be diagnosed professionally by a dentist. Do not delay,
