Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The pain and bleeding in the gums could be because of the gum infection, secondary to the deposits. the other possible causes of bleeding gums could be 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 stolin gum paint.
If bleeding disorder is there then consult a general physician.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
