Bleeding gums between my top front teeth?!


Question: Ever since I had a small cavity fixed between my front teeth, my gums bleed and become swollen often. There isnt any other place in my mouth that I am experiencing this. Can someone please tell me why?

I brush my teeth daily and use mouthwash too... I guess I should floss more often ( I only do it every couple days or so). My teeth are not in bad shape.

bleeding gums can be caused by brushing too hard, or if you have symptoms of gum disease. try to use soft-bristled toothbrush to avoid gum bleeding. if do not pay close attention to good oral hygiene then it can result to gum problems. make it a habit to carefully and properly brush and floss teeth every after meal. this can help remove plaque that sticks around teeth. and can fight bad bacteria that can cause oral infections.

dental visits and dental cleanings are very helpful in taking care of the gums, teeth and oral health. an all natural oral care product can help keep gums and teeth healthy and promote fresh breath. visit http://www.themouthdoctor.com for more tips on how to take care of the gums.

Try the vitamin CoQ10.

you probably have sensitive gums and need to brush them more instead of just your teeth.

First you should floss some more,seriously we take that for granted more often then we should.Tons of your hard working money I'm sure could be used for something else besides a dentist if you start doing that.Also for the bleeding use peroxide,it tastes nasty but it will be good for your gums since it doesn't have the alcohol that most of the mouthwashes have which is bad for bleeding gums.With flossing,brushing and the peroxide you should be good to go unless more bleeding occurs,like the whole upper gums from front to back and such.Then you'll have to be treated for Gingivitis by a dentist.Good luck!

Sounds like gingivitis.
