Answers:
yeah more than likely it is gingivitis!. try your best to floss everyday for one week then the bleeding should stop!. its hard to floss with braces on but if you can do it then more power to ya!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

using floss can make your gingiva bleed!.

in gingivitis the gingiva is swollen and shows spontaneous bleeding!.consult a dentist so that you can make sure of it

the best food source to avoid bleeding gums is vitamin c- citrus fruits like orange, lemon etcWww@Answer-Health@Com

It can be gingi but it can also be related to the sensitivity of your gums since you've had braces for so long!. Just keep flossing it helps!. :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
