i wanted to start a similar thread, because recently i found out, that my gums wasnt that perfect as i thought they were eventhough i regularly went to a professional teeth cleaning twice a year.
sometimes i get a lil smell on the floss (it has to be fibrous one, not the regular floss) and sometimes the gum was bleeding but only when i used interdental brushes.

right now i get my a revisited root canal treatment including the replacing of my old golgen tooth crown. the related teeth was treated 12 years ago but according to my dentist didnt had the technical equipment he overlooked 2 rootcanals while root treatment, so over the years the dead material left there junked up and maybe infected my whole body when connecting with blood. all hidden under the golden tooth crown and only diagnosed with a x-ray picture that was taken randomly. although i am not sure if this contributed to bb.

what i just wanted to say is, that eventhough i was told to have great teeth and gums every time i visited any dentist, it now seems to me it wasnt true at all.

@jen when you experience your gum to be bleeding it is infected to a high probability.
floss and treat with interdental brushes carefully (and rigorous). maybe treat with Chlorhexidine too but only temporary because it shouldnt be used over longer periods.
it might take some days to clean it and to keep it from starting to bleed.
this condition should be taken seriously.
