What Causes Blood In Mouth?
Hi, after going to the toilet I have blood in my mouth. I have no rectal bleeding and the blood in my mouth stops after a few minutes. I have not been to the dentist recently or had any bumps which may explain why this is happening. Have you got any advice please?

Hi
With your query, i think you might have had gingivitis or periodontitis which can be ruled out only by clinical examination. What do you think about your oral hygiene status is it really good? do you brush and gargle after every meal? Do you have bad breath?Its k whatever nothing to worry about just with a scaling and proper brushing along with flossing if necessary this can be rectified. Till then you can use a mouth wash like chlorhexidine directly without concentration but dentists visit is advised for complete and permanent remedy.Hope this helps you
