Gums that bleed may be painful, but it’s important to continue with a regular oral hygiene routine by brushing twice a day and flossing every day. If you’re experiencing bleeding gums, you’ll want to contact our office right away by calling (724) 836-2433 to schedule an appointment.
Bleeding gums are typically a symptom of gingivitis or periodontal disease, a more advanced form of gum disease. Failure to treat the issue before it becomes worse may lead to tooth decay and eventual tooth loss. That’s why we recommend coming in for a cleaning right away.
