Hello, bleeding could be because of deposits on teeth surface or food lodged in between teeth. Visit a dentist and get your scaling and polishing done. Brush your teeth twice daily, night brushing is very important. Floss regularly. Rinse after every meal. Visit dentist every 6 months.

Hi, your gum bleeding could be due to Gingivitis or Perodontitis.An OPG xray will help for further treatment. You probably will need a supra and sub gingival cleaning. (deep cleaning) And follow up is required after that. From my understanding your teeth is decayed and part of your teeth is broken. We will need to examine, take an xray from further treatment plan.
