Bleeding, Swollen, and Sore gums
Your tooth brushing technique could be to blame for your bleeding gums. But it can also be caused by a diet lacking in vitamin C.
Vitamin C can directly affect your gum health:
•Acts as an antioxidant, helping prevent cell damage.
•Plays an important role in wound healing and immunity.
MAKE SOME CHANGES!
1. MAKE SOME CHANGES! WITH YOUR ORAL CARE ROUTINE:
•Choose a toothbrush with soft bristles
•Don’t brush hard! Be gentle as you clean your teeth!
2. MAKE SOME CHANGES WITH YOUR VITAMIN C INTAKE:
Vitamin C deficiencies are rare in individuals who consume enough fresh fruits and vegetables.Your body does not make vitamin C on its own, so the only way to maintain adequate levels of it is through diet.
•Be sure to consume enough vitamin C by eating at least 2 pieces of fruit and 3–4 portions of vegetables each day.
