Bleeding gums can be a sign that you have or may develop gum disease. Ongoing gum bleeding may be due to plaque buildup on the teeth. It can also be a sign of a serious medical condition. The main cause of bleeding gums is the buildup of plaque at the gum line. This will lead to a condition called gingivitis, or inflamed gums. Plaque that is not removed will harden into tartar. This will lead to increased bleeding and a more advanced form of gum and jaw bone disease known as periodontitis.
We offer a free Smile Consultation that will check you for these signs and symptoms as well as perform a number of checks for all others issues that you may currently have with your teeth, gums and overall mouth health and hygiene.

FAQ’s about bleeding gums
Have a question about bleeding gums? Chances are you’ll find the answer in our FAQ below.
Why are my gums bleeding?
Bleeding gums are not normal and not healthy. They’re a sign—possibly along with other often-missed red alerts like puffy, red, irritated gums—of gingivitis (early gum disease). Millions of adults have some form of gum disease, yet only a very small fraction realise it because gum pain is not an early symptom. The good news: early-stage gum disease is reversible, through improved daily mouth care and more frequent visits to the dentist for plaque and tartar removal with professional tools. But left ignored, blood in the sink can progress to serious gum disease (periodontitis) that attacks gums and is the number-one reason teeth fall out.
Will bleeding gums stain teeth?
Generally, bleeding gums may be a sign of chronic bacteria in the mouth and an early sign of gum disease. Blood and bleeding can stain teeth, especially around loose fillings or prior cavities. If you have bleeding gums when you floss, you should continue flossing and seek an appointment with a dentist for advice for the prevention of gum disease.
Can bleeding gums cause a throat infection?
No. Bleeding gums cannot cause a throat infection. A boil, cavity, or infection of the gum, however, can cause a throat infection as it produces bacteria that may cause a throat infection if it is not treated promptly. The best treatment for cavities, boils, or infections depends on the extent of the infection and the tissue affected.
Can pregnancy cause my gums to bleed?
Yes, there is a reported increase in the severity of gingival inflammation of gum swelling during pregnancy [3]. The cause of this is unknown, but it is theorized that hormones present during pregnancy, like progesterone, cause progression of gingivitis by increasing sensitivity of the gums.
How common is gum disease?
Very. As much as seven out of 10 people in some countries will develop gum disease at some time in their lives. It is the most common dental problem, and it can progress quite painlessly until you have a real problem. That’s why it is so important to prevent gum disease before it becomes serious.
How does gum disease start?
Gum disease begins when plaque adheres at and below the visible edge of your gums. If plaque is not removed every day by brushing and flossing, it hardens into tartar (also called calculus). Tartar promotes a bacterial infection at the point of attachment. In these early stages, gum disease is called gingivitis.
Your gums may be a bit red, but you may not notice anything. As gingivitis gets more serious, tiny pockets of infection form. Your gums may be puffy and may bleed a little when you brush, but it is not painful. Over time, the infection destroys the gum tissue. Eventually, you may be at risk of losing one or more teeth.
