I brush my teeth every morning and at night, My gums bleed sometimes when I am sleeping onto my pillow.?

Really bad breath in the morning, can't talk to anyone till I have brushed and rinced with listerine. Why is this happening? Could it be diet or something worse.

You could be dealing with a couple of things. You could be suffering from gingivitis, which is an infection of the gums. You could also be brushing your teeth too hard; be sure that your toothbrush is soft, rather than having hard bristles. You may also be suffering from a vitamin C deficiency; taking 500-1000 mg of vitamin C daily can often help with bleeding of the gums, as well as bruising on other parts of the body, as it helps strengthen the walls of blood vessels.





If none of those things help, it would be good to see your dentist or your doctor (or both) to find out other possibilities.





Good luck!
Reply:20 bucks says you have gingivitis.
Reply:i think its bcoz of the diet
Reply:most people have the bad morning breath. for your gums to bleed a little while brushing is normal but on your pillow? How much? is this right after you brush? You need to see a dentist very soon, in the meantime, brush with a soft brush, floss and rinse with salt water everyday


good luck
Reply:Go to the dentist. You have a gum infection. He will give you the proper medicine to use and deep clean your teeth to get the food out from your gums and around you teeth that are where you can't reach. Do it now before you loose some of your teeth from waiting too long. Good luck.
