If you often bleed while brushing your teeth, take it seriously. The Reader’s Digest magazine website summarizes six reasons for bleeding gums.

1. Gum. When plaque accumulates on the teeth, the gums become inflamed. Because it has no symptoms such as pain, it is easily ignored. If left untreated, it can progress to periodontal disease that destroys gingival tissue and leads to tooth loss.

2. Smoking. Smokers had a higher risk of bleeding gums. The inhaled fumes leave irritating toxins on the teeth and are difficult to remove by brushing, and they cause worse gum function and bleeding. In addition, smokers have impairment in the immune response to infection, and tissue healing and blood supply can all negatively affect gingival health.

6. Taking some medication. Some prescription medications can increase the risk of bleeding gums. Antiepileptic drugs, antihypertensives, and immunosuppressants may cause gingival swelling and bleeding. In addition, antihistamines, sedatives, antidepressants and antineuropathtics can cause reduced saliva production and dry mouth, which can also cause gingivitis.
