bleeding from gums is the first sign of inflammation of gums.
a scaling and polishing is recommended every six months apart from regular brushing two tmes a day and other oral hygiene measures like flossing and use of mouthwash.
but unfortunately this practise in not followed in our country on regular basis.
since inflammation of gums does not present itself with lot of pain,periodontal health is neglected on a large scale resulting in bleeding from gums,fowl odour_ halitosis,loosening of teeth,and finally loss of teeth.
i advice a scaling will keep 90 percent gum and teeth problemsat bay if followed at least twice in a year
