Gingivitis: Yes. Good flossing and good tooth brushing combined with regular dental care can lead to very healthy gums.

Gums that bleed: Gingivitis is the beginning stages, and by definition, your gums are inflamed, and you might see them bleed when you brush and floss. If this is left untreated, then the infection moves deeper into the jaw, and it progresses to the more severe, periodontal disease.
