Hello,

Thanks for consulting HCM

Read your query as you have bleeding gums this is due to infection in gums it can be due to deposition of subgingival deposition of calculus. Dont be worried so much I will suggest you to consult oral surgeon and go for oral prophylaxis .

Inmeantiem do warm saline rinses 2 -3 times a day and maintain proper oral hygiene , use mouthwash chlorhexidine regularly .

Hope this will help you.
