It is most likely due to your periodontitis. Are you being treated for it? Failure to treat will result in the loss of your teeth.

Periodontitis is infection of the gums and bone that support the teeth. One of the signs ofperiodqntitisis bleeding gums as bacteria continue to literally digest your tooth supporting tissues. It does not self cure. Nor can it be cured by pills, politics, homeopathic, or neglect. Recommend that you seek evaluation and treatment by a gum/bone specialist, a Periodontist.
