i'm worried.
 

my gums have been bleeding on and off for no reason the past couple of days. its only a small bit, but after brushing it can be pretty bad.

a quick google search i'm worried i have gingivitis. a quick search, and i still dont know how serious gingivitis is.

my dad thinks it's just that i have sensitive gums, but i don't think i can just suddenly get sensitive gums out of nowhere.

boo hoo.

You can actually get sensitive gums in a short period of time, it happened to me.

You should keep note of when it started and then wait a week or 10 days.

If it persists I'd go to your dentist get it checked out.:thumbs:

But I don't want to go dentist :( I actually haven't been in years, but I've never had nay real problem with my teeth/gums until now.

And if having sensitive teeth means my gums bleeding like this - then I want new ones. Having to taste blood 24/7 isn't nice.

My gums used to bleed too and I was told it was because I didn't brush properly (I was younger at the time). I was told if it kept happening it could lead to gum disease.

I don't know what to tell you to help it because it stopped for me now, but like Iceman said if it keeps happening just go and see a dentist for the right course of action.

Thanks peeps. My dad is going to go chemist tomorrow and get something, and if it doesn't stop - it's to the dentist :( boo.

Over time it can cause heart problems due to the infected blood.

Try sensodyne. It really helped me! I didnt really have the same problems but i had sensitive teeth.

Plus your mouth will smell of rotton flesh.

Somone needs to take a trip to the dentist or try brusing slower.

Try Corsodol Mouthwash best one going for bleeding gums.

then if it keeps happening go to Dentist.

Is it all of your gums or is it in a certain area?

I use sensodyne all the time anyway, cause I have sensitive teeth.

I think I'm going to try Corsodyl mouthwash, and if it doesn't get better- go to dentist. Has anyone ever had to use this stuff before? Is it good?
