thanks for your query, i have gone through your query.
the bleeding from the front teeth region could be because of the gingival or gum infection secondary to deposits around the teeth or any gingival polyp or pyogenic granuloma. it can also be because of any bleeding or clotting disorders like thrombocytopenia.
consult your oral physician and get yourself examined and rule out the above mentioned conditions.

if it is because of pyogeninc granuloma or gingival polyp or pulp polyp, it should be surgically excised.
