Bleeding gums
I just done my crown recently not long ago, and my dentist spotted gum redness above
my crown so he prescribed me cream to apply. But I got bit of bleeding between my gum and crown whenever I tried to floss or brush my teeth. What should I do?

Hello sir....
The bleeding gums may be due to gap between the crown and gum which cause food lodgement and bleeding or it may be due to sharp underlying margin which cause gum irritation and bleeding....
Next Steps
kindly visit dentist for furthur consultation and management
