Sensitivity and inflamed gums

2017-06-02 13:03:27
Sensitivity in tooth, and gums seem inflamed (red) and occasional bleeding while brushing. There also seems to be some white residue on the gums sometimes. There is discoloration, however that I've had since as long as I can remember so that is not a new symptom.
