Plaque the problem: Usually bleeding gums are from an accumulation of plaque and tartar on the teeth and around/below the gumline. Plaque is composed of bacteria that normally live in the mouth. These bacteria grow on the surfaces of the teeth and form a film called plaque. The film needs to be disrupted every 12 hrs by brushing/flossing. See a dentist, have a good cleaning and your gums will likely recover fine.G/l!

Use a telephone: Most probable cause of bleeding is gum disease, infection. If so, professional treatment is required. You can't just take a pill, potion, or snake oil and expect it to go away. You need to call your Dentist or a specialist Periodontist to make an appointment to be evaluated. Once the cause of the bleeding has been established, the proper treatment protocol can be administered.
