Stay away from aspirin as that could decrease the ability of the blood to clot.

Some people brush their teeth with two much vigor and this can create a problem of a receding gum line ( something you dentist usually checks for).  The other item this brings to mind is a problem with the portion of the blood that forms blood clots.   Does anyone else in your family have a similar problem or bleeding problems?
