Talk to experienced dentist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
They don't seem to be infected or inflammed. Is there any pain or discomfort that you're facing though?
If your gums bleed while brushing, that would suggest an inflammation of the gums, and in that case you should get a scaling (cleaning) and polishing done by a dentist.
Health Tips
While brushing, make sure you take vertical strokes from the gums towards the teeth- that will help in maintaining healthy gums and prevent recession of the gums. Also, use a 'soft' or 'medium' bristled toothbrush.
