Thanks for using Health Care Magic.

Read your query.

Bleeding of gums is usually due to the gum inflammation ( gingivitis).

I would advice you to visit your dentist and get it cleaned and maintain it well post cleaning the teeth.

Use chlorhexidine mouth wash for a while.

Use proper method of brushing and increase use of fibrous food.

Hope this was helpful .

Thanks and regards .
