Bleeding gums is often an indication of something much more serious, a warning that your body is trying to heal itself. Four major signs of bleeding gums are: swollen, painful or sensitive gums; blisters around the gums; discoloration of the gums; and the bleeding itself that occurs around the base of the teeth. Ignoring a bleeding gum problem may result in something worse as the bacteria from the infected area could pass through the bloodstream and can bring about more infections. The gums are the supporting structure of your teeth and not taking proper care of them will result to loss of teeth.
