How long does the bleeding exist after wisdom tooth extraction?
I'm just scared ill get dry socket. I got my teeth out yesterday at 11 in the morning, and i have been bleeding on and off. This morning when I woke up there was no blood, but not I started to taste it and it started bleeding. I put a gauze in and it collected blood. My teeth don't hurt AT ALL. I mean I don't even need the painkillers I got. How long does it take for the blood clot to form. I have not been doing any major sucking of blowing. I mean I sneezed yesterday, but how likely is it that I get dry socket. If the blood clot gets dislodged, will another form?

I just had one wisdom tooth pulled on fri and I still get a little bit of blood on my gauze. I think its normal for about 2-3 days. I was just diagnosed with a dry socket. Its very very painful. So I think at this point you should be ok. I believe by tomorrow you should be just fine. If your not in pain now, keep doing what your doing and all should be good. Just be should to rinse lots, don't smoke, or any sucking motion for that matter, and try not to do anything over exerting like I did. What caused my dry socket was that I played hockey 26 hours after my extraction. The heavy breathing and running were the likely causes. hope this helps a little.

having a enamel extracted can leaving you bleeding as much as a week after, and know-how tooth much extra so. you're saying you have discomfort?? shop a watch in this because it might desire to be "dry socket" the place the extraction sight receives contaminated because of the blood clot being dislodged. no rely if that is this the discomfort would be severe and you need to pass on your wellness care expert/dentist as quickly as possible, you will elect it wiped sparkling out ideal and a few antibiotics possibly, and that they provide you with solid painkillers. on a lighter word it might desire to easily be discomfort from the operation itself and prefer i suggested formerly bleeding is to be predicted and not something to tension approximately. you have had surgery, and it will take time to heal. attempt to no longer worry, and basically shop an intensive eye... solid success
