10 Gingivitis Symptoms
Symptom #9: Bleeding Gums
Bleeding gums are due to inadequate plaque removal. Germs can be found in plaque. These germs attack the gums causing irritation and inflammation. This results in bleeding when the individual brushes or flosses their teeth.
This is the first stage of gingivitis and does not usually have other symptoms. At this stage, it is still reversible, and patients should seek treatment to avoid further complications.
