    "I have been seeing Dr. Steven Brattesani in San Francisco for about 15 years. As a physician in private practice myself, I really appreciate the entire Marina/Pacific Heights Dental office. The staff is friendly and welcoming. The office is spotless, as all dental and medical office should be but unfortunately, are often not. Most of all, I appreciate Dr. Brattesani. He is a very modern dentist that keeps up with the latest treatments and really cares about my dental health. He explains things thoroughly, and not just because I am a physician. If he recommends something, I understand why he recommends it. He is very proactive in heading off problems with my oral health and I think that is why my teeth are in good shape today. He is very forward-thinking, never just content with the status quo.
    The location of the office is convenient, on Fillmore between Lombard and Chestnut and I usually find street parking within a block.
    I have referred several friends and colleagues to Dr. Brattesani and they all love him as much as I do.
    I highly recommend this practice if you need a great dentist.

Great question! That often is never asked! Yes it is common and only says that your body's immune system is working! Trying to stave off the irritation caused by either food particles breaking down or bacteria and sometimes foreign impaled particles.... It seems contrary to say floss if it bleeds but I will assure you unless there is a systemic problem or actual physical damage to the tissue if you keep flossing bare with it in the next 3-10 days you will stop bleeding and your tissue (gums) will thank you for it! Flossing gets where brushes can't. May I recommend, if you don't like to floss, using a WaterPik will do a great job; in fact new studies show it is as effective as flossing! For patients who don't floss well it is a great product! You can pick one up at most drug stores and Target, etc.... Okay, hope this helps. Thank you for taking the time to ask this question! Be well and remember only brush and floss (or WaterPik) the teeth you want to keep!
