How To Stop Bleeding From Gum?

I had deep cleaning scaling down yesterday

and I have one tooth that the gum keeps bleeding and it bled all night. I've washed with warm salt water, listerine mixed with peroxide. what else can i do? i have gause in my mouth now to absorb the blood but it's crazy right now. How do I know if it's clotting properly?

Hi,
Thanks for posting the query,

If the bleeding is cot stopping i would suggest you to consult the concerned Dentist and get a checkup done usually this does not occur after normal scaling and polishing.
Also i would suggest you to get your blood pressure and routine blood examination done.
Continue iwth lukewarm saline gargles and antiseptic mouthwash rinses, take multivitamin suplements take something cold like ice cream, juice, avoid hot spicy foodstuffs.


Hope you find this as helpful,

Take care!
