Gum bleeding, pain and detached gums
Blood comes out when I suck normally for both upper and lower sides in front. On the back side of the lower jaw the bleeding is less but the gums are slowly getting detached on the back side of the two front teeth and it's also paining. The pain is increasing slowly. I was an occasional smoker earlier but from the past few weeks I am not smoking. Please suggest something to heal the pain and stop bleeding.
