What should I do? &#8211; Jackie<\/p>\n<p>Jackie &#8211; Your concern is understandable\u2014particularly since your gums do not usually bleed when your teeth are cleaned.<\/p>\n<p>Although gums may bleed during dental cleaning, they should not bleed heavily, unless extensive gum disease is present.
