Why are my teeth bleeding after cleaning?
Patient: I had my teeth cleaned on Monday.  They said there was a lot of bleeding because of not having them cleaned in 5 years... I did take antibiotics before the cleaning...  But I've become very sick.. extreme dizziness and other symptoms I've never had before... Not sure what to do.. Doctor: Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.The bleeding from the gums after and while cleaning is because of the deposits below the gums resulting in gum infection. Nothing to be panic, its normal while cleaning the teeth. You can use topical gum astringents like stolin gum paint. Apply it 3-4times daily for 3-5days. The bleeding gums will stop immediately. do saline gargling.The dizziness is not because of the bleeding from the gums. Consult a general physician for this.I hope my answer will help you, take care.
