Hi
I would personally have her teeth scaled under a General Anaesthetic, If you ask your vet there is one recommended for collies and shelties. My oldest lady now 9 had hers done last year and she was fine. Her teeth have always been poor which I put down to a poor diet for her mum whilst in whelp and in weaning, we changed her diet when we got her but the damage had been done.
Don’t worry about the bleeding gums as this is washing away all the poison there and will stop as her gums harden over time.
