[|Human|] My husband had a deep scaling done this morning and his gums are still bleeding A LOT, NON-STOP! He has been rinsing with warm salt water and it will form a clot over the top of his teeth, but the gums continue to bleed so much that when he rinses and I look in his mouth, the blood flow is so continuous that I cant tell if his gums are cut or if blood is coming from underneath the teeth or what. Our dentist office is closed now. What should he do?
[|AI|]  HiT hanks for your query with Chat Doctor, as you mention continuous bleeding from the gums will not happen after scaling yes, it happens after the immediate scaling but not after that also. Anyways are you sure he is not having any bleeding disorders I mean did he remember when he fell or cut or a wound at that time does the bleeding stopped or? If it stopped immediately then it's fine. Then probably I assume your husband is suffering from periodontal disease where the gums are severely inflamed with pocket formation leading to bleeding from the gums. I would suggest your dentist if everything looks normal then it is better to have blood tests done. For now don touch the gums for a while leave then for 30 mins with observation and apply pressure with your fingers so that control of bleeding can happen otherwise you can also use ice over the gums as temporary treatment. If bleeding severe then consult another dentist but don't delay. Hope this is helpful.
