Why do your gums bleed even if you don't brush hard?

My friend is having a problem with that and needs some helpWhy do your gums bleed even if you don't brush hard?
That is a sign of gingivitis. Your friend should be brushing 2-3 times per day. Using a soft bristled brush along the gumline, gently massaging in a circular motion. Also, they should be flossing at least once per day. Listerine rinses can also be helpful.





If your friend keeps up this routine, the bleeding should stop in 7-10 days.Why do your gums bleed even if you don't brush hard?
Your not suppose to brush hard. brushing hard only does more harm than good. If your not flossing regularly that could be your answer. Brushing twice a day with a soft / medium bristle tooth bush, in circular motions, 2 minutes each time should help. Along with flossing daily should make the bleeding subside!
maybe your friend has sensitive gums,or maybe he/she used to brush really hard,therefore making them sensitive.tell ur friend to try avoiding brushing the gums..see if it works,if not,have an appointment with a dentist!
