Hello Mr. lybrate-user Gum bleed with bad breath is most commonly present because of improper dental hygiene. Kindly change your toothbrush every 3 months and brush your teeth twice daily, floss daily, say no to tobacco, Drink plenty of water. Gingivitis is very common gum disease that is caused due to poor brushing technique and poor oral hygiene. You may also develop pain in gums due to this but do not worry, just eat well, take vitamin C- carrots, pomegranate, citrus fruits, guava, oranges etc to keep your gums healthy.

- use a soft toothbrush -- and brush properly! brush your teeth for at least two minutes twice a day and after meals. Hard brushing can further damage the soft tissues of your mouth. - floss at least once a day and be sure to floss beyond the gum line to remove more plaque. - control bleeding by applying pressure to the area with a cold compress. - rinse with salt water or hydrogen peroxide to keep the area clean. Avoid mouthwashes that contain alcohol, which can dry out your mouth. - stay away from smoking and other tobacco products, which can aggravate bleeding gums. - eat a balanced diet and limit snacking between meals. Carbohydrates and sugars feed dental plaque. - try an oral irrigation device, commonly known as a" water pick, to clear debris from around the gum line. - you may need deep cleaning along with surgical curettage or gum strengthening procedure. Use pepsodent tooth paste & gum paint for 2 to 3 weeks. Advance procedures can be done with laser.
