Dealing with gum bleeding can be distressing, but some effective home remedies can provide immediate relief. Here’s how to stop gum bleeding immediately using easy-to-find ingredients and techniques.
- Salt Water Rinse: Mix a teaspoon of salt in a glass of warm water. Swish around your mouth for 30 seconds to reduce inflammation and kill bacteria.
- Cold Compress: Apply a cold compress to the outside of your cheek near the gum area to reduce swelling and clot blood faster.
- Clove Oil: Dab a small amount of clove oil on a cotton ball and apply directly to the bleeding gums for its antiseptic properties.
- Tea Bags: Place a used tea bag (cooled) on the affected gum area. The tannins in tea can help stop bleeding and fight infection.
