What if There's Blood on My Toothbrush

Do you see blood (even a tiny bit) on your toothbrush or floss? Pay attention! No amount of blood in your mouth is normal. Blood is a sign of the early stages of gum disease, and it's called Gingivitis. Learn more here. https://askthedent.ist/gingivitis

Gingivitis can lead to different oral and systemic health issues. It can cause receding gums or gum recession, loss of teeth (which leads to even more painful dental expenses) and conditions like heart disease, diabetes or strokes. Find out more about receding gums here. https://askthedent.ist/receding-gums

Proper biofilm management (brushing and flossing) is always the key to preventing and even curing gingivitis and gum disease. Corporations and even mainstream dentistry promote mouthwashes as a means of fighting the harmful bacteria that cause gingivitis but you may not be aware of the harm that mouthwash can cause to the oral microbiome. Yes, it kills bad bacteria but it also kills good bacteria that help with teeth remineralization and aids digestion.
