Dentist names non-obvious causes of bleeding gums
The doctor listed the reasons for bleeding gums.
Irina Nazilina, head of the dental department of the Lyubertsy regional hospital, shared a comment on this topic.
Bleeding gums are a sign of inflammation, RIA Novosti writes.
It can occur for a number of reasons. For example, in some cases it is due to poor brushing of teeth.
In this case, bacteria accumulate, which provoke inflammation and bleeding.
Another reason is malocclusion. If the teeth are displaced, then the load is unevenly distributed when chewing.
The dentist advises that if bleeding gums occur, you should consult a specialist who will determine the exact cause and select the correct treatment method.
For example, an orthodontist will help if a person has an incorrect bite.
To prevent gum inflammation, you need to brush your teeth thoroughly and follow hygiene rules.
