"Dr. Rhodenbaugh, how do I care for my mouth after
wisdom tooth removal?"
To limit bleeding after
oral surgery,
Dr. Rhodenbaugh may place a gauze pack on the
wisdom tooth extraction site. This should
be left in place for 30 to 45 minutes after leaving the office. Bite
down on the gauze, but don't "chew" on it. Bleeding might continue after
the pack is removed. If it does, we recommend you follow these instructions:
- Form a thick pad from clean gauze;
dampen it and place the pad directly on the wisdom tooth extraction
site.
- Apply some pressure by firmly biting
on it for about 30 minutes.
- Replace the pad with a clean one if
it becomes soaked with blood.
- If heavy bleeding continues, call
your oral surgeon.
- Avoid sucking on the wisdom tooth
extraction site.
