Common Causes of Gum Bleeding

One of the main causes of bleeding gums is inadequate oral hygiene. Failure to remove plaque daily through proper brushing and flossing can lead to the development of gingivitis.

Additionally, a diet rich in sugars and refined carbohydrates can create the ideal environment for the development of harmful bacteria in the mouth, increasing the risk of gum inflammation. Opting for healthy and nutritious foods is essential to keep gums healthy [more information].

Health Conditions and Medications

Certain health conditions, such as diabetes, and the use of particular medications can affect gum health, making them more susceptible to inflammation and bleeding. It is important to monitor these conditions and discuss them with your dentist.

Harmful Habits

Harmful habits such as smoking and chewing tobacco can seriously compromise the health of your gums. Not only do they increase the risk of gingivitis and periodontal diseases, but they can also hinder the healing process.
