Gums become red and puffy and bleed if you do not brush them well!. Its called gingivitis, which turn into gum disease that leads to tooth loss!. Its hard to clean well with braces, just be sure to brush and floss under your gumline as often as possible!. The swelling should go away, along with any sensetivity or bleeding you may have!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
