Suggest Treatment For Bleeding Gums While Brushing
Right now I have no insurance and cant see a dentist. I think I might have gingivitis. My gums are bleeding when I brush and my gums are separating away from my teeth. My gums are sore and bleed during the day too. What things can I do to treat it without going to the dentist?

According to your signs and symptoms you are one step ahead than gingivitis and that is periodontitis. In both the cases you have to seek dental treatment.
However, as you can't go to any dental office, home dental hygine maintenance is utmost important. so I advice you,
1. brush twice daily with proper brushing technique(vertical and sulculer strokes)
2. Regular flossing.
3. Hydro floss(water irrigation).
Hope you get well soon.

thanks for your query, i have gone through your query. the bleeding gums could be because of the gum infection secondary to deposits on the teeth. you have to consult a oral physician for the permanent solution otherwise the infection can spread and dissolve the bone and teeth might start shaking. consult a oral physician get your teeth cleaned once and maintain the oral hygiene after that. rinse your mouth with saline and brush your teeth twice in a day. i hope my answer will help you. take care.
