Other Answers:
Mine bled for a couple of days but everyone is different
They might prescribe tylenol #3 or just tell you to take Ibuprophin. It doesn't bleed a whole lot unless you are a hemophiliac. Your dentist should give you some instructions on how to care for the extraction site.
it's not overly painful from what I remember, but you should sleep on a towell as to not ruin your pillow
they usually prescribe a pain killer for you, and trust me sometimes you need them. the bleeding won't be much as long as you are still and quiet. no smoking and no straws. you will have to clean it so many times a day.
no not too much bleeding... just before you finish they'll put gauze in your mouth and that is pretty much it. If there is more than that talk to your dentist.

Ask your dentist all your questions... they know the best

Painkillers... again its up to your dentist
hey well when my mom got her tooth pulled it BLED for like 1-2 days and she was on pain killers for almost a week. but depends how old you are-how you can handle pain-which tooth-etc.. cause she had it done in the back-pain wasnt good for her and she was like 41. and you normally get a medication perscribed and you need to clean it with peroxide-water- or salt and water- normally with a syringe. no straws and etc.. keep a towel under ur mouth as you sleep. any questions message me on messenger.
dont eat: sharp stuff I.E. chips etc. and eat jello and yogurt umm pudding etc.. ice cream might help it. juss be careful
Yeah it's bleeding involved and you will need pain killers its gonna hurt like hell but if you don't do it now you may lose more teeth
I would take a motrin prior to the extraction. Leave the gauze in for at least 1 hour after and make sure you bite down on the gauze to put pressure on it. Don't spit, rinse, or smoke afterward and you'll be fine. Also, don't lay down while you have the gauze in your mouth. If you lay down, you might fall asleep then there's a chance that you might swallow the gauze & that's never good !
I just had a molar pulled and the dentist will prescribe painkillers if you want them, but really, there's no tooth to hurt and your gums won't hurt, so you don't need them. Mine just bled a little afterwards. I just had to change the gauze once and it stopped. It only takes a couple seconds and it's over before you know it. There's no pain afterwards. Good Luck!
tyleno #3 is usually perscribed. Each person is different shen coming to the bleeding thing and depends what tooth it is. Bie the bullet my friend, extraction is better that pain
you'll be fine, the bleeding won't be that bad, you'll just need to keep cotton swabs in your mouth for a bit
If you're not a smoker, you shouldn't have any trouble. The Dr will give you something, if you ask, but the pain isn't as bad as an abscess in your tooth. Don't take a lot of aspirin, because it makes you bleed more.
yes you'll be on pain killers and yes you bleed a lot! i have to get mine out in January all 4 but my bf just got his pulled so yeah
