A Look at the Common Causes of Bleeding Gums
Are your gums suddenly bleeding? Before assuming that this is a sign of periodontal disease, it is a good idea to mention a handful of other causal factors to take into account. While speaking to a dentist is important, please keep these other issues in mind:
– Smokers are commonly known to suffer from chronic bleeding gums.
– Replacing a toothbrush with frayed bristles could alleviate this condition
– Brushing your teeth with too much force may damage the gums and even erode tooth enamel
“Aggressive brushing has also been linked to tooth enamel erosion, therefore leading to cavities.”
