Bleeding Gums: Causes And Prevention

Bleeding gums are often an early sign of gum inflammation and should not be ignored. Common causes include plaque buildup, improper brushing techniques, inconsistent flossing, or skipping regular dental visits. A Wilmington dentist at Coastal Smiles Family Dentistry can determine the cause and recommend appropriate care to restore gum health. Maintaining good oral hygiene, using gentle brushing methods, and scheduling routine cleanings can help prevent bleeding gums and reduce the risk of more advanced gum disease over time.
