Tooth (or gum) bleeding?!
Question: Tooth (or gum) bleeding.?
I have braces. The tooth that is 'bleeding' is right next to the last tooth in my mouth (I believe this is the wisdom teeth [they weren't removed yet]). Is it normal for it to bleed (and why).?
Really, I think its better to say my gums are bleeding at the location of one of my tooth.Health Question & Answer

Answers:
Healthy gums Do Not Bleed. Since you have braces, it is alot harder to maintain your oral hygiene so you have to be very diligent when brushing your teeth. I suggest an electric toothbrush (try the ones that cost only $10)-it's better than a regular brush. also, since you have areas that are hard to clean, a waterpik might help around that area that is bothering you. To avoid bleeding gums- keep them clean! Finally, Floss only the ones you wanna keep!Health Question & Answer
