Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
The bleeding may originate from inflamed gums due to improper dental hygiene. When food particles and bacteria accumulate on your teeth, they can irritate your gums, causing them to become red and bleed. I recommend visiting a dental office for a professional cleaning. Additionally, try using a soft-bristled toothbrush to clean your teeth gently. With time, the bleeding should subside. It's also important to schedule a dental check-up to determine if there is another underlying cause for this issue.
Thanks
