Question
What causes a baby to have blisters on their tongue and bleed while sleeping?
Answer
Blisters on a baby’s tongue and bleeding gums while sleeping can be caused by gingivitis, periodontitis, systemic diseases, AIDS, hemangiomas, and trauma. Normal healthy gums are pink in color, firm and elastic, and do not bleed when brushing or eating, even when brushing vigorously. By maintaining good oral hygiene, brushing teeth regularly, removing dental calculus, and eliminating the irritation of poor-fitting dentures or dental fillings, removing plaque, repairing or adjusting unsuitable dentures, securing loose teeth, and adjusting the occlusion of each tooth, these symptoms can be cured.
