If your hands started bleeding every time you washed them, you’d probably book a doctor's appointment immediately. 🩸 Yet, so many of us shrug off a little bit of pink in the sink when brushing or flossing, thinking it's normal.
Let's clear the air: healthy gums do not bleed. Bleeding is the very first warning sign of gingivitis—an inflammation caused by plaque buildup along the gumline. The good news? It is entirely reversible with a professional scale and polish and a solid home routine.
What NOT to do: Do not stop brushing or flossing because they bleed! That actually makes the inflammation worse. Brush gently, keep flossing, and let us help you clean the hard-to-reach spots.
