There is no need of root canal for bleeding gums unless has deep cavity . Scaling may be necessary followed by an X-ray to check if there is any decay . If your old crown has some gaps as it meets then gum margin it can too cause germ build up and subsequent gum bleeding . So check with a dentist who is considering all these factors
