I had the same problem up North 12 years ago with the hygienist . I told my dentist that I wanted him to clean my family's teeth which he did for those 12 years without a drop of blood among any of my four family members. He sold the practice and bleeding during cleanings has returned. BTW I come from the days of no Novocaine where you had to hold onto the arms of the chair and watch the smoke come out of your mouth lol.
