Teeth bleeding ever since root canal

2018-07-23 07:05:45
I had my front upper six teeth prepared for crowns for cosmetic purposes. I had no infection or any other problem besides growing gaps between teeth. So I thought I'd go for "smile design". But ever since these teeth underwent preparation and treatment they have been bleeding ever so occasionally with constant dull ache. And the bleeding is profuse, not like infected teeth. My whole tooth-brush gets covered in blood. I got checked for infection several times, evengot X-ray scanned, but my doc says there's no infection, yet they bleed. Please tell me a solution and reason for this.

Hello sir... Bleeding gums may be due to poor oral hygiene and as you have undergone treatment may be due to irregular margins . You can get it checked . Consult a dentist rule out the cause and get it treated.

It is a gum problem . Could be due to improper crown margins. Either they should be polished if possible or replaced else your gums will get damaged
