Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern.

As per your query you have bleeding gums because of inflammation and ulceration of gingival mucosa. Maintain proper oral hygiene. Do brushing and flossing regularly. You should avoid excessive use of tea , coffee as it will cause stains on teeth. Visit dentist once and get it examined. Go for quadrant scaling and root planning. Use listerine and betadine mouth wash. Do gargles after every meal to prevent bacterial accumulation. Go for curettage. Rinse mouth after every meal to prevent bacterial accumulation. you should Use 0.2%chlorhex mouthwash once daily half an hour after brushing

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
