Do some peoples gums naturally bleed?

My gums have always bled when I brush and floss, is this normal? No. Bleeding while brushing and flossing is a sign of infection or injury. There are several contributing factors to periodontal disease. Bleeding is an indicator of a problem.

A SPECIAL PATIENT RECOMMENDATION & "The Coleman Dental Experience"

Image
We were very grateful recently to receive a kind letter from a patient named Joe G. What's it like to be a patient at Coleman Dental? Hear the answer straight from a patient. From the moment I got to the Dental office Jennifer made me feel comfortable. When she told me she would handle my insurance, I knew that she just saved me a ton of time trying to get reimbursed. Dr. Coleman and staff did an excellent job on my teeth today. He has the latest technology.

To use such a guide, simply match your current tooth color to the corresponding color on the chart. This gives you a starting point as you determine how much whiter you'd like your teeth to be. How white should your teeth become? That depends. There's no one right way to whiten your teeth. Some people want an instant and dramatic change, while others prefer more gradual whitening
