I was flossing my teeth and the gums next to one of my crowns started to bleed. Not just a little! For a?

few minutes I was looking like a vampire after a hearty meal. It has stopped bleeding now and doesn't hurt. What happened? And should I do anything about it?

Yes, you should see your Dentist. Bleeding is a sign of Periodontal (gum) diseases. It is a serious infection and if left untreated, can lead to tooth loss.





In the mildest form of the disease, gingivitis, the gums redden, swell and bleed easily. There is usually little or no discomfort. Gingivitis is often caused by inadequate oral hygiene. Gingivitis is reversible with professional treatment and good oral home care. See the site below for more information
