If you bleed when you floss between your teeth, this could signal several potential problems. Of course, always speak with a dentist if you suspect any issues. What are three reasons why your gums may bleed when you floss?

– You might not be flossing incorrectly; up-and-down movements are best.
– You may not be flossing regularly; daily flossing is best.
– You may have gum disease, which requires treatment.
