You need to floss more. There is bacteria eating up all the sugar and food bits stuck to your tooth enamel, and those bacteria secrete nasty waste chemicals. Your body does not like that at all, and the soft-fleshy area around your teeth--also known as your gums--becomes red and inflamed, and prone to bleeding. You need to make an appointment with your dentist so you can see the dental hygenist. (Have your teeth cleaned.)
