Hello..
The bleeding might be due to gum problem which happens when the bacteria get accumulated between gum and tooth region which cannot be removed by brushing. It might be due to improper brushing technique also.
Next Steps
I recommend you to get scaling done.
Health Tips
Please use a soft bristled toothbrush with bass method for proper oral hygiene maintenance. (See YouTube video on how to brush with bass method).
