Why gums bleed:
Plaque can be difficult to remove from some tooth surfaces. Plaque contains bacteria which causes inflammation of the gums. Inflamed gums bleed easily.

What to do about it:
Ask your dentist to recommend for you the most appropriate cleaning techniques or dental treatment.

Ways to prevent it:
Your dentist may recommend:

• Cleaning twice daily with a soft toothbrush.
• Using inter dental cleaning methods.
• Using toothpaste containing an anti-bacterial agent.
• Regular scaling and polishing.
• Other dental treatment.
