Gum Infection, most likely..
Detailed Answer:
Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..
I have gone through your query and can understand your concern..
As per your complain that is seems that occasional gum bleeding while brushing with no swelling in the gums and not too much of deposits..
Well, the condition is still pointing towards gum infection as at times there can be more of deposits in the area of teeth that is covered under the gums and it can cause inflammation and bleeding..
Nothing to worry, consult a Dentist and get a thorough cleaning of the teeth done by a procedure known as Scaling..
-Along with it ask him/her to demonstrate proper brushing technique to you so that you can maintain better oral hygiene..
-Start doing warm saline gargles daily..
-Gargle with betadine solution by putting few drops in water.
-Massage the gums gently with your fingers by putting antiseptic oral paste over gums..
-Chew Vitamin C pellet daily as it strengthens the gums..
-Use a soft toothbrush to brush your teeth..
Any further queries are welcome..
Regards.
