It is normal to experience bleeding after teeth cleaning; however, persistent bleeding may be caused by conditions such as gingivitis or dental calculus. It is recommended to seek timely medical attention and receive professional treatment. Before visiting a dentist, you can take the following measures: 1. Rinse with warm salt water: Dissolve a small teaspoon of salt in warm water and use it to rinse your mouth several times a day. This helps reduce inflammation and relieve gum bleeding. 2. Avoid irritating foods: Avoid spicy, acidic, or other irritating foods that may aggravate the gums and worsen bleeding. 3. Brush properly: Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and brush gently from the gums toward the teeth. Avoid brushing too hard to prevent gum damage. 4. Use dental floss: Clean between teeth daily with dental floss to prevent plaque buildup and reduce the occurrence of gum bleeding.
