Your gums will probably bleed if you brush the heck out of them. I would say brush them THREE times tops.Is it bad to brush your teeth more than twice a day? What if i brushed like five or more?
yeah i need to upgrade to a softer one mines start to bleed
it isn't bad brushing your teeth more than twice a day - the more you brush, the more your teeth will benefit. the fact that your gums are bleeding wen you brush is a good sign. it shows that your brushing your teeth properly. if you keep brushing well your gums will become more resiliant and therefore won't bleed. hope this helps m8
Use a soft brush and don't use too much pressure. Actually, brushing five times daily will help your gums and teeth. You'd make a dentist proud.
Brushing your teeth, to clean your teeth, is only necessary after you eat something. To stimulate your gum tissue use a soft bristle brush and keep it on your gums, gently brushing in small circles.





You can do this as often as you want, as long as it is gentle and you aren't abrading the tissue.





Your dentist should be able to give you some rubber tips to help you out.





Don't brush your teeth too hard, it will wear away your enamel.
It might help your gums but it could ruin your teeth. Brushing your teeth too much will wear the enamel - so it's not a good thing at all. It won't hurt if you over-brush every now and then, but you do not want to keep it up for a long period.





I'd recommend brushing 3 times at the most (after each meal), and using a good mouthwash and floss. I use an oral irrigator as well, which I find great. If you do this for about 2-3 weeks, your gums will improve a lot. Also visit your dentist to see if you need a clean. You might have tartar build up under your gum line which is causing the bleeding and no amount of brushing will fix that without a professional clean.
That is a good thing and it will help you very much in the future
