Wisdom tooth removal wont stop bleeding?

Question

its been about 24 since i got them removed and my right side is still trickling blood. is this really bad, or do i just suck at healing

Answer 1

I just had mine out about 2 weeks ago. Everyone is different when it comes to the bleeding. You are fine, don't worry. Mine was bleeding for about 2 to 3 days.  If you are really concerned contact your doctor and ask. It doesn't hurt to ask, right?

Answer 2

Ask your denist.

Answer 3

By now you should have a clot formed in the socket.

Have you been rinsing your mouth?

The most important thing about having a tooth pulled is to leave your mouth alone for the first twenty-four hours (no rinsing or gargling) to allow the socket to form a blood clot so the site can heal.

If you are still bleeding then I doubt this has happened and you need to contact your dentist. If you can't do that then you need to hold a gauze on it tightly between your teeth until the bleeding stops.

Dry Socket is something you do not want to end up with, belive me.

Answer 4

No, when I got my wisdom teeth out it took awhile to heal... It's different for every person.  Try putting ice on your cheeks though and don't eat anything hard. Hang in there!
