Any open site of bleeding can expose one to transmission of viral and bacterial illnesses. For "bleeding gums" , an oral surgeon may be a good starting place for treatment.

Consider, if you would, that gum disease has been linked with increased stroke risk, cardiac pathology, kidney disease, low weight premature babies, etc. ALWAYS practice safe sex. See your Dentist/Hygienist or a Periodontist to control your gum disease.
