planning to paint these for a birthday party. do i really need to sand them?

i have a few of these plastic cones i want to spray paint pink and purple. do i REALLY need to sand them, or will it be fine to just paint them as is?

i’m not worried about longevity, they’ll likely be tossed or donated after the party

teeth stopped bleeding?

Backstory: ever since i was a kid my teeth have bleed when i brushed them. i was born with bad dental genetics and it’s only gotten worse as i’ve gotten older.

fast forward to this week- i was recently hospitalized for an emergency cholecystectomy and staph aureus infection. i’ve been on all sorts of antibiotics both IV and oral.

for the past couple of days i’ve noticed there’s no blood when i brush. not even a drop. before, my gums would start bleeding as soon as they were touched by the brush.

did the antibiotics clear up something underlying? just curious as to what could’ve caused this. i’m definitely happy about it but just thought it was weird!

TIA
