I just got braces and my teeth are bleeding. Why?
Question:
Answers:
Totally normal, hon. If you have concerns, try your dentist's office today. Some are open on Saturdays. Otherwise, call the nurse on Monday. I think you just have sensitive gums. Don't bother stressing about it! :)
your teeth are bleeding?! wow. heard of gums bleeding before, but never teeth... strange.
Your gums are sensitive.
i dont know why they are bleeding. maybe they are to tight. im getting my braces tuesday, i have 8 spacers on right now. oww. =)
I think it is normal. You might have bad gums but I don't really think so. Tell your ortho.
Ask the dentist that put them on.
im pretty sure your gums are bleeding and ask your dentist he may have put them on too tight! oh another idea now your sleeping with your mouth open because of the braces and your gums are inflaming then when your brush they bleed!
Because your teeth are being forced by the braces into their proper position, your gums are sensitive and adjusting to the braces, make sure to brush and floss as best as you can since the braces make it more difficult to get your teeth clean and they also make it easier to get gingivitis.
o.k i think this question is common sense.
the reason that i could think of if you re gums are bleeding i think it just might be the pressure the braces are doing to your teeth and gums.
i hope you stop bleeding soon.
Teeth don't bleed. It's probably your gums bleeding because you've just had a ton of work done to them. I wouldn't be concerned unless you keep noticing blood in your mouth for several days. You're best bet, however, is to call your Orthodontist and ask him/her what's up.
If you mixed teeth up with gums this is a totally different problem . ok if its just your gums your gums are soft and not use to pain etc. But if its a tooth which i bleeding i would advice you to contact you dentist ... its a pulp cavity . And not a normal problem !! .
Have a check over, maybe to tight, or sensitive. Go back and have a check up.
I think the gums are sensitive from the pressure of the braces and start bleeding
