doctor i have  problem started long ago in 2004.the problem is with mouth and the teeth bleed and this usually happens at night when am sleeping.i have been to the dentist and been given some mouth wash and antibiotics but it is getting worse now. what is the cause?
Hi! Welcome to Chat Doctor. I read your query. Bleeding from gums can be due to several reasons main being Gum disease, vitamin C deficiency, etc. I suggest you to maintain good oral hygiene. Brush twice a day, specially at night to avoid any food left sticking in gums. Use mouthwash with tannin acid. Floss every day. Take good diet, lots of fluids, multivitamin supplements. Visit dentist regularly and get oral prophylaxis done every 6 months to a year as suggested. If bleeding persists longer, get blood test done for anemia, clotting factors and consult a physician. Hope the answer helps you. Thank you!
