  2. Brushing too hard
  3. Flossing too aggressively
  4. Eating hard or crunchy foods

Promoting Gum Health

There are things you can do to stop your gums from bleeding and help them heal. First, use a soft-bristled toothbrush to gently brush your teeth. Be sure to scrub in soft circles instead of back and forth.

Next, move the floss up and down between your teeth. If you see food or plaque building up on your teeth, clean it off before it turns into tartar.

Lastly, rinse your mouth with salt water or a mouthwash that kills germs. This will help kill germs and bring down swelling.
