Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query.
As far as the bleeding from the mouth is concerned, it can be from the gums secondary to gum infection because of the deposits. Nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. You need to get your teeth cleaned. Mean while you can use topical gum astringents like tannic acid (stolin) after consulting the oral physician. I hope i have answered your query. If any queries are there reply me back. Take care.
