Hello,bleeding gums and yellow teeth could be because of food lodged in between teeth. Visit a dentist and get your scaling and polishing done. for proper aligned teeth you can go for Orthodontic treatment. Brush your teeth twice daily, night brushing is very important. Floss regularly. Rinse after every meal. Visit dentist every 6 months.

The best bleeding gums treatment is to remove from your teeth the plaque bacteria that causes gum disease. When dental plaque builds up, it turns into tartar, a hard, sticky substance that adheres to your teeth. Without regular teeth cleanings, dental tartar can become a breeding ground for even more plaque, which can creep below the gum line and lead to an infection that causes bleeding gums.So if you notice that you have bleeding gums, see a dentist as soon as you can. Seeking bleeding gums treatment at the first sign of a problem can help reverse gingivitis and help prevent periodontal disease. Other treatment options, such as scaling and root planing procedures, slow down the process of gum disease. If you suffer from an advanced form of periodontal disease, your dentist may recommend ongoing bleeding gums treatment or periodontal therapy. In some cases, dental surgery may be needed to control the bleeding For any more query or treatment visit us today.Dr Ratnika Agarwal , Dental Surgeon/Owner of Smile Up Dental Care & Implant Center ,PUNE.We offer Dental and cosmetic treatments for all age group.

Hello Mam,
If you hanent got a professional cleaning done in the last 6 months,then it is high time you visit a dentist.Plaque and calculus deposits leads to Gum Inflammation and bleeding,further leading to periodontitis causing bone loss and protrusion of teeth.A clinical examination and X-rays will reveal the extent of bone loss.Regards,Dr Sumanmakam,Dental arts,jayanagar.B'lore.

Please consider these:
1. One should get one's teeth serviced (professionally cleaned) half-yearly, or at least once a year if the level of deposits (tartar, stains) are less.
2. If you have recently noticed the protrusion of your teeth, then it could indicate a weakening of their gum & bone support.
3. Maybe you are holding back while brushing your teeth so that you don't injure the already bleeding gums while brushing. This could result in some regions of your teeth getting missed out during brushing, thereby getting more (yellow/brown/black) deposits.
4. Lower jaw front teeth are normally yellower/duller than the upper front teeth.
Next Steps
Visit your dentist.
