Bleeding gums unfortunately is very common, often seen after brushing or flossing. If you are concerned, read on to find out more.
Why are my gums bleeding?
The main reason gums bleed is because of a build up of plaque at the gum line, which can lead to a condition called gingivitis. Gingivitis is the most common disease in the world. If this plaque isn’t removed, it will harden into tartar. This can lead to a more advanced form of gum disease called periodontitis which is when there is loss of the supporting structures of the tooth such as the gum and bone.
When should I be concerned about my gums?
Yes!! Bleeding gums is common, but that doesn’t mean it’s something that should be ignored. It’s usually a sign that your gums aren’t happy and could be a sign of gum disease. If treated early, it’s very treatable and easy to reverse.
Are bleeding gums serious?
Whilst bleeding gums is common, it can lead to serious conditions if not treated. Visiting the hygienist regularly can help keep on top of any plaque or tartar build up, avoiding the condition worsening and can often reverse it.
How do you fix gums that bleed?
There are various things you can do at home to help fix bleeding gums, including practising good oral hygiene, reducing stress levels, stopping smoking and reducing snacking.

How Sedation Dentistry Can Help You Feel Relaxed
If dental appointments make you feel anxious or overwhelmed, you’re not alone. At Evolve Dentistry, we believe everyone deserves access to comfortable, stress-free dental care. That’s why we offer sedation dentistry in Portishead.
Sedation dentistry involves using medication to help you feel deeply relaxed during your treatment. While you’re still awake and able to respond, you’ll feel calm and often have little to no memory of the procedure afterwards.
Sedation can be an excellent option if:
- You experience severe dental anxiety
- You have a strong gag reflex
- You need a complex or lengthy treatment
- You’ve avoided the dentist for years due to fear
At Evolve Dentistry, our experienced team will carefully assess your needs and discuss the sedation options available to you. Your safety and comfort are always our top priorities, and we take the time to explain each step so you know exactly what to expect.
By choosing sedation dentistry in Portishead, you can finally receive the dental care you need without the fear or worry. Many of our patients tell us that after trying sedation, they no longer put off their appointments and feel much more confident about their oral health.
If you’ve been avoiding the dentist because of anxiety, we invite you to discover how gentle, compassionate care and sedation options can transform your experience. #sedation #sedationdentist #awardwinning #beyourbestself #Northsomerset #freeconsultation #multiawardwinning #patientsatisfaction #compositebonding #patientsfirst #newpatients #healthysmiles #naturalteeth #acceptingnewpatients #nailsea #portishead #clevedon #portisheadmarina #dentist #dentures
