Suggest Treatment For Bleeding Gums

My gums bleed and seem to be taken over my teeth. I don t want to go back to my dentist because I don t want to get yelled at for not taking care of my teeth when I do. I just can t get every spot with having braces. Not only that but I m pregnant I heard that when this happens you have to get surgery done. What will help get them to go back to normal ?

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The bleeding gums is because of the gum infection called pregnancy gingivitis or it can be secondary to the deposits. Nothing to be panic, no need to go for surgery or anything. Just get the teeth cleaned if deposits are there. It is also because of the hormonal changes during pregnancy. Do not worry about the instructions given by the dentist regarding your brushing methods, its for your good. this will reduce once you deliver. Do saline gargling.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
