It has been few months since I noticed that my front teeth (upper and lower) has started bleeding and now they're swollen. I'm flossing 2-3 times each day with saltwater drinking more water. Can I get some better suggestions or prescription for treating my swollen gums?

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. Bleeding gums may be a sign of poor dental hygiene. Gums become inflamed and bleed when there's a buildup of plaque along the gum line. Plaque is a sticky film containing bacteria that covers your teeth and gums. And if you don't brush or floss enough, the bacteria can spread and cause tooth decay or gum disease. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
