@Russel Schwartz You might not be putting enough pressure on it when you're biting down. If it keeps up, try a super gentle swish of salt water first! In two days if it's still badly bleeding, see your dentist to make sure the stitch didn't pop. If it gives you any hope, I'm doing better since my first comment. Follow this advice given in the video, and keep it clean as possible. Salt water (very gentle swishing!) after meals helped me tons - also gentle brushing away from the area. I despise yogurt now lmfao. It blows for like a week or two, and gets better rapidly after. Also avoid hot foods and drinks as long as you can, and stay away from spices too! I have to go back and get a second tooth taken out but I'm waiting a while (after holidays) because it was not a fun experience with after care lol

Great I have been one who followed what I was told! Details are important! I thought I had dry socket, but it was irritation from the gauze. Where I kept putting gauze in thinking the gauze was to protect the hole from air and any particles. The gauze began to irritate my jaw and extraction site. Was told it's important to keep it in, but not told to stop after a certain time if no bleeding is observed! Great breakdown this should help many extraction patients!

[@poundforpoundboxing8943]

Brother, I appreciate this so much! My doktor left me with a small piece of gauze in my mouth (which was very bad placed, on my other tooth and partly on the operated tooth) , and just said “bite a lil on it for an hour” and let me go. This while he extracted my 2 wisdom teeth on the left side + 1 upper tooth next to the wisdom teeth. Also he never said that I should drink in the first hours or spit out the blood. Because I wasn’t aware of how important it is to make the bleeding stop, I drinked water and I didn’t panicked for like 3-4 hours. Then I began to get huge blood (dark red/black) cloths which where abnormal, it was like there was huge pieces of meat in my mouth (very disgusting). When I called the hospital, she just told me to roll a gauze as if it’s a sigar and bite on it, but I put the gauze vertically (because the initial dokter placed it like that) and I used up 8-9 gauzes. No stopping bleeding and finally at 1 am in the night I found your video which explained perfectly how to put the gauze between your teeth and that it’s extremely important to keep high pressure on the wounds. After fighting against my sleep, biting down for 40 minutes, it FINALLY stopped bleeding and the gauze wasn’t as bloody and nasty as all the other gauzes. So thank you very much for your video, I was about to go to the hospital, but now I can finally rest and eat some. Bless you brother!

[@PrincessShabz1]

Thank you for this. I was bleeding lots near the stitches of my wisdom tooth on the 1st day. I was used up 8 gauzes, biting down and changing them every 30mins. I went back to the dentist same day as I was worried I was still bleeding 6 hours after extraction. they checked it and said it looks fine. They wasn’t concerned about the bleeding. After watching this video, I used a WET gauze- left it on for 30mins, it was still bleeding a little and I decided not to put anything on there- it did clot up on its own that night. I’m on the 2nd day, I can taste blood but no excessive bleeding.

[@r.h.3084]

@@EE-kt8sh I would guess there's a fairly even mix. The patients are out of it and forget things, and everybody is different. Dentists (and every other doctor) answer so many questions and try to make sure other things are said and it gets left out because they are human like everybody else :) My dental surgeon didn't say a word about this today. I could just look at the gauze and see that it was rolled, so I did the same thing. I was bleeding quite a bit for a few hours. I didn't know I should be pushing it all the way back where I had all four wisdom teeth pulled. I thought they were to absorb the blood and saliva in my mouth. Maybe it should be printed on the post-op reminders for the doctor and the takehome instructions for the patient, and then neither would forget. :)

[@andrineslife]

Yeah I'm currently in that second guys situation. I thought I had gotten all the gauze out (my dentist didn't send me home with any to replace, just told me to remove it after I got home) but apparently he had stuck 3 pieces in there and now 1 piece is stuck to the extraction site and I guess it's been there for 4 days now 😬 I'm scared to remove it myself so I'm heading back to the dentist, but I guess my advice to other dentists is to make sure you inform your patient how much gauze you put in there so they know how much they need to remove 😅

I've been doing it wrong using a dry gauze for the last 6 hours. But now ill use a damp gauze. I hope I don't have a dry socket. Tips on preventing dry socket??

[@OnlineExodontia]

It’s tricky May. There are many factors involved. On your end of things I would say the most critical time period is the first day or two after surgery. Try to minimize how much you disturb the area to allow the clot to get established. If you rinse too much, eat hard crunchy food, poke at the site trying to clean out the hole, etc. you will increase your odds of dry socket. Smoking is another big thing to avoid. All the best!

[@syllabubble]

This is helpful, thank you. I've never quite known how to use gauze. I'm having two back lower molars surgically extracted next week. If stitches are used, which I expect they will be, is there usually an exposed clot that needs to form and have gauze applied, or do surgical extractions and stitches prevent the need for an exposed clot?

[@OnlineExodontia]

You'll still generally have an exposed extraction site as it's difficult to close the gum completely in most areas of the mouth. It's also not necessary most times to close the tissue after an extraction as most sites will heal fine as an open wound. All the best!

[@syllabubble]

@@OnlineExodontia Thank you. I had it done two weeks ago, it seems to be healing okay, but the stitches haven't dissolved yet. They look like blobby bits of white gum, is that normal?

[@OnlineExodontia]

@@syllabubble Yes they often collect debris and swell up as they dissolve. By this point you'd expect them to be dropping out very soon, but depends a bit on the type of suture used as to how long they'll hang around.

Hi Dr.!!! It's been exactly 1 and half a day since my daughter got her molar extracted, and I think her dentist gave her improper instructions after the extraction. He didn't tell her to wet the gauze before putting it on the extraction site, and he didn't tell her to roll up the gauze. He ONLY told her to place the dry gauze on the extraction site, AND to fold the gauze in 1/4, but didn't tell her to put the rounded edge where the socket is. Because of that it took longer to stop bleeding. Will doing what she did take her body longer to form a clot? And is it normal for the dissolvable sutures to take 3 weeks to dissolve?

Just got five removed (all four wisdom and the upper left hand molar on top side) and they just gave me the gauze. I got it removed at 11 am, it’s now 11:13 pm and I’m still bleeding! Thank goddess for this!

Hopefully this info was helpful for you! All the best!

I was too messed up to understand how to do this thx

I was so close! I make a wrinkle and pushed that into the tooth, but folded properly feels better Thank you!

If the tooth that is extracted is at the side of the gum where closing your Jaws wouldn't help, could you hold the gauze using your finger?

[@OnlineExodontia]

You bet Adam. Sustained pressure is the key to controlling most bleeding. All the best!

@@OnlineExodontia Thanks! Bleeding has stopped now after I done that
