Bleeding Gums

To address bleeding gums without pain, gently brush the area using a small-headed brush and expect the bleeding to decrease in a few days. Ensure to brush both gums and teeth. Chlorhexidine mouthwash can provide temporary relief but may cause teeth staining if used long-term. Avoid using mouthwash while brushing and maintain good oral hygiene until visiting a dentist. For bleeding gums with slight pain, follow the same guidelines and take painkillers if needed, while being cautious about instructions. If bleeding gums are accompanied by severe pain or swelling, seek assistance from a dental practice.
