Your gums may start bleeding if you accidentally scratch them with coarse foods like crackers, candies and nuts.

If you suffer from gum bleeding without eating the mentioned products, you should pay closer attention to this condition and see a specialist to determine the real reason.

1. You are a smoker
If you’ve been smoking for several years, you may have noticed that your teeth and gums are not as healthy and strong as they used to be before you picked this terrible habit. Cigarettes contain lots of toxins that come in contact with your gums and teeth and ruin them.

2. You might have gingivitis
Inflammation is caused by bacteria that accumulate on your tooth enamel and gums. This sort of condition is known as gingivitis. You are unlikely to suffer from pain or any other signs at first. But later on you start noticing blood stain on your dental floss or brush.
