Periodontal Bleeding (Bleeding Gums)
The Most Common Sign of Gum Disease
Seeing blood in the sink after brushing or flossing is a common but important warning sign. Healthy gums should not bleed. Bleeding is a sign of inflammation, most often caused by plaque buildup along the gumline.

Common Causes of Bleeding Gums
- Gingivitis: This is the number one cause. Plaque buildup irritates the gums, making them inflamed and prone to bleeding.
- Aggressive Brushing: Using a hard-bristled brush or too much force can traumatize the gums.
- Medications: Blood-thinning medications can increase the tendency for gums to bleed.
- Pregnancy Gingivitis: Hormonal changes during pregnancy can make gums more sensitive to plaque.
