What Is The Cause For Gum Growing Low That Bleeds And Hurt While Brushing?

I have braces and my gum is growing low. I brush my teeth for at least 3 minutes per day before my gum started growing low. So when I brush my teeth, it starts bleeding and it hurts really bad. Is there any way that I can stop it from hurting, bleeding, and from growing lower?

Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

Bleeding gums can be due to various reasons few are nutritional deficiency, improper brushing technique, hormonal disorders.

I would suggest you to consult an Dentist, get a checkup done, also go for complete mouth scaling and polishing.

Take complete balanced diet with plenty of raw vegetables, fruits, juices, citrus fruits like lemon, oranges.Drink plenty of water to keep yourself hydrated.
Take multivitamin suplements.

Use a soft bristle toothbrush, brush twice daily slowly in circular motion.
Take lukewarm saline and antiseptic mouthwash rinses.

Take care!
