Why Do My Gums Bleed After A Regular Teeth Cleanup?

Four months ago I visited a dentist for a check-up. My teeth were "washed" and a small cavity was also filled. This was the first time this has ever been done to me and I am 32yrs old. Now my mouth constantly tastes salty and often but not always bleeds when I brush. What could be the problem with my health now? I am also experiencing this for the first time. Does my new environment ( temperatures below zero degrees centigrade compared to previous 27 degrees centigrade where I have lived all my life) got anything to do with this? I would appreciate an answer from an expert. Thanks.

Thanks for your query, i have gone through your query.
The bleeding gums can be becuse of the gum infection secondary to the deposits. The other possible causee can be a pulp polyp that can cause bleeding even after a touch.
the salt taste can be because of the pus dischrge or gum infection(periodontal or periapical abcess).
Consult a oral physician and get your teeth cleaned. If the tooth is having hyperplastic pulpitis then it has to be root canal treated.
consult a oral physician and get it treated.
i hope my answer will help you. Take care.
