Post-operative Care for Tooth Extraction
The socket (area where the teeth is removed) will take some time for blood clotting. There might be bleeding for a while. If the bleeding persists for a very long time, contact the dentist immediately.
It is recommended that you do not disturb the socket with your tongue or fingers since it will cause the bleeding to start again. For a week or two, it is also advised that you chew on the other side of your mouth.
