I went to the dentist yesterday and was told I have pretty bad gum diease. The cleaning hurt really bad and I was unable to eat all day yesterday. I woke up this morning with a mouth full of blood and I am in severe pain now. Is this normal?

It is normal. There is a product by oral gel and it is on a swab you rub on your gums it is a miracle and reduces pain and swelling of the gums. Once you begin to floss regularly and brush more the gums will toughen up and they wont bleed any more.

NO, not to wake up with a mouthful of blood-pain, yes, blood no. Call the dentist-or, call another dentist and explain what happened. Either way, make sure you are brushing and flossing-your gums will bleed until you clear it up.

It's normal if you've actually been diagnosed with gum disease. I would rinse your mouth with some warm salt water - several times a day. CALL YOUR DENTIST!!! Don't wait!
And try to floss every day. It will help.

call your dentist.
were you flossing prior to this visit. if you weren't you should begin now. flossing just once a day changed the health of my gums. i use GLIDE dental floss which is much better than the waxy type.

Floss and brush more. My last cleaning was pretty painful even the next day.
