About 50% of Americans have advanced gum disease, yet many of us experience little to no symptoms. Bleeding is a sign that your gums have been irritated for a while, most likely from dental plaque. Therefore, if you experience gum bleeding when brushing or flossing, it is probably a sign that you need to work on your teeth and gums more thoroughly – not leave them alone.
If you notice localized traces of bleeding in your mouthpiece after use, you shouldn't be worried. Willo, or any other toothbrushing device, when used in normal conditions, is not known to cause gum trauma and bleeding is primarily a sign of some gum inflammation.
Since using Willo involves a more dynamic gum massage, inflamed or sensitive gums may take a few days to adjust to this new method. We recommend you to choose the softer cycle on the Willo app to start with if you experience bleedings.
If they persist after 10 days, please contact us at support@willo.com or talk to your dentist.
