You should be concerned immediately about bleeding gums, it can be the first sign of periodontal disease and should be looked at as soon as possible.
Likely Gum Disease. You should be concerned. Gum disease is an infection of the gums and can lead to tooth loss. If it is in its early stages, it can be reversed with treatment by a dentist. Please call for care, your teeth will thank you!
Always, it takes a lot of energy and time to make blood. Your body does not want to lose energy, so when you see blood in your mouth, it is a sign that something is wrong.
