thanks for your query, i have gone through your query, the bleeding gums could be because of the gum infection secondary to deposits on the teeth. consult your oral physician and get your teeth cleaned once. maintain oral hygiene. the white layer could be because of enamel hypoplasia that is defective enamel formation or flourosis consult your oral physician for further. i hope my answer will help you. take care.
