Early childhood:

Red and swollen gums in young children are mainly caused by local inflammation, mechanical damage and vitamin C deficiency.

Gingivitis is a common disease in children, mostly caused by poor oral hygiene and other unclean factors. In addition to bleeding gums, there are also redness, swelling, pus discharge and bad breath.

Young children with swollen gums should generally start learning to rinse their mouths after meals after the age of 2 and start learning to brush their teeth at the age of 3. At this time, parents should teach their children the correct way to brush their teeth - vertical brushing, which is to brush up and down along the gaps between teeth, brush the upper teeth downwards, and brush the lower teeth upwards, and brush both the inside and outside of the teeth. Parents should also choose a toothbrush specially designed for infants and young children, which should generally be a children's toothbrush with 2 rows and 6 bundles of bristles. If you brush your teeth incorrectly or use an incorrect toothbrush, or the toothbrush is too wide or too long, it can damage your gums, causing them to become red, swollen, and bleed.

In addition, vitamin C deficiency can also cause bleeding when the pulp is touched, or even spontaneous bleeding. At this time, you should go to the hospital for a clear diagnosis, differentiate it from some blood system diseases, and receive appropriate treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
