Preventing bleeding gums

What causes bleeding gums?
  • Bleeding gums may be caused by many things, some
    not that serious to worry about. Even a new
    toothbrush can bruise the gums and cause slight
    bleeding, but would disappear in no time when you
    get used to the toothbrush. Most people prefer to
    use hard- or medium-bristled toothbrushes to
    clean their teeth as they are better in removing
    all the plaque, food particles and anything which
    may be stuck between teeth. However, sometimes
    these bristles could be just a little too firm
    and bruise the gums, causing bleeding. If that is
    the case, a soft-bristled brush should do the
    trick.

How can I prevent bleeding gums
  • Brush your teeth at least twice each day. Make
    sure you follow a proper brushing technique. If
    you're not sure what to do, ask your dentist in
    Dubai during your next appointment.

How can I prevent bleeding gums
  • Drink plenty of water. Drinking water, especially
    after eating, can help wash food off your teeth,
    keeping them clean and make it less likely that
    bacteria will form gum-damaging plaque.

How can I prevent bleeding gums
  • Eating a well-balanced diet. A balanced diet,
    including plenty of vitamin C and calcium, will
    minimize the likelihood of having gum problems.

How can I prevent bleeding gums
  • Avoid tobacco. If you smoke cigarettes or use
    other tobacco products, try your best to quit.
