Respected Sir While making space for crown in between two teeth at times there is bleeding from gums because in order to separate two teeth from each other gums in between two teeth get's cut. So bleeding from gums is absolutely normal. No it does not damages your gums. And it heals on it's own.
Health Tips
Lukewarm salt water gargles three to four times a day
