Suggest Treatment For Bleeding From Teeth
Question: I have been bleeding from my teeth for the past 2 weeks. I do not bleed 24/7 but ive found that I bleed when I brush my teeth or when I suck inside my teeth.There are 2 places where the blood comes out that you can clearly see. I feel one hole in one of my tooth where the blood comes from and the other place is on the middle gap on the bottom teeth. I don't know why this is happening and I want to know if its serious.
Brief Answer:
gum infection
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your query and according your description it seems like a case of gingivitis (gum infection).
It can be due to various reasons but most common reason is poor oral hygiene causing tartar deposition.
You need complete cleaning of teeth and gums.
I would advice you to visit a dentist for cleaning(scaling). Don't worry as this is a very simple and painless procedure.
Meanwhile you can improve your oral hygiene. Brush properly twice daily. Use a good mouthwash.
Take care.
