Gums should not bleed when you brush or floss. If yours do, it's an early warning sign of gum disease (gingivitis), which, if left untreated, can progress to periodontitis — a more serious condition that can lead to bone loss and eventually tooth loss. The good news is that gum disease at early and moderate stages responds very well to professional treatment.
