Is it normal to be still bleeding aftre 24 hrs(Teeth extraction)?
It has been 24 hours since I got my tooth removed. It is still lightly bleeding. Is this normal? (The teeth that was extracted was not a molar but the tetth in front of thhe molars.)
Answers:
Yes it is I got my teeth pulled couple years back and they were bleeding for liike a day in a half. I bought some gauzes to stop the bleeding. ONce it stop bleeding you will just have a red spot in your mouth. ( This red spot will go away)
Call the dentist's office and ask him.
Just got teeth pulled, how long until the bleeding stops?
Yes it is normal but PLEASE do yourself a favor and DO NOT MESS WITH IT!!
I know it is a temptation and a worry, but if you mess with it you can get a condition known as "dry socket" - an EXTREMELY painful condition where the socket of the tooth becomes irritated and can cause weeks of pain.
What's the white stuff on my retainer?
Be sure to bite down on the gauze for a long enough period of time. Don't keep checking it to see if it STOPPED BLEEDING! Don't swish to rinse your mouth out.
I hope this helps.
