Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The bleeding in the oral cavity could be because of the gum infection secondary to the deposits below the gum.
The other possible causes of bleeding can be because of any cuts in the oral cavity or pulp polyp or any bleeding disorders like idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. Consult a oral physician and get these things ruled out. Get a complete blood investigation along with INR to rule out the bleeding disorders.
If any gum infection then get your teeth cleaned and use topical gum astringents like strontium chloride (stolin) gum paint.
if pulp polyp is there then get it root canal treated.
If bleeding disorder is there then consult a general physician.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
