Bleeding gums is not a disease but a symptom common to many diseases and many systemic diseases can cause bleeding gums, such as blood diseases, AIDS and so on, but more important is caused by gingivitis. Chronic periodontal inflammation, such as puberty gingivitis, pregnancy gingivitis, acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis, drug-induced gingival hyperplasia, gingival fibroma and so on.

Diagnosis:

1  of chronic periodontal inflammation in patients with symptoms was not obvious, occasionally itchy gums, swollen feeling, no other discomfort. When the gums by the mechanical stimulation, such as brushing teeth, sucking, chewing food, can cause bleeding gums.

2  puberty gingivitis refers to occurred in the adolescent with chronic non-specific gingivitis, good fat lip on the anterior side of the interdental papilla and gingival margin, lingual less frequent labial gingival margin and interdental papilla obvious swelling, nipple Changcheng spherical protruding gingival color dull red or bright red, bright, soft texture to enhance the formation of gingival sulcus bag, but no change in ttachment level, bleeding on probing easy.  

3  pregnancy gingivitis before pregnancy that is usually in patients with varying degrees of periodontal inflammation, from 2 to 3 months of pregnancy, began to appear obvious symptoms until 8 months and reached its peak, and progesterone levels and blood consistent 2 months after birth gingivitis can be restored to the level before pregnancy.
