Read your query, as you have slight bleeding from this can be due to Periodontal ligaments infection due to plaque , calculus deposition causing bleeding and mobility in tooth dont worry I will suggest you to consult dentist and go for oral examination and oral prophylaxis , in meantime do warm saline rinses , you can do chlorhexidine mouthwash once daily , brush your teeth twice daily and maintain proper oral hygiene.

Hope this will help you.

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The bleeding from the gums and pain after brushing or while brushing can be because of the gum infection like gingivitis and periodontitis. The wobbling or mobility in the tooth is because of the bone loss around the tooth making it weak.
Consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. Get your teeth cleaned(scaling and root planing with bone graft). From now onwards maintain a proper oral hygiene methods to keep your teeth clean.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.

Hey Hi! Bleeding gums are due to the deposition of dirt that constantly irritates it leading to gum disease. The pain and wobbling of your tooth is a sign of gum disease at a very advanced stage where the supporting structures are also under destruction. The primary reason for this is poor oral hygiene as you've stated that you brush irregularly.
The first treatment recommended for you is a good oral hygiene practice henceforth and a complete oral prophylaxis which helps your teeth to be prevented from furthermore destruction and try to revive back to normal. Depending on the grade of mobility of the tooth your dentist will decide whether it can be retained or not.
