How much bleeding should I have after Tooth Extraction....?

I had a tooth extraction/bone graft done on the last upper molar right hand side. It has been about 24 hours now and it is still bleeding. How long should I expect this heavy bleeding to occur?

if it is just oozing you are ok (don't forget when blood mixes with saliva it looks like there is a LOT of blood).





If you are still have to bite on the gauze and every 20 min it comes out soaked heavily with blood, you should contact your dentist.





In 24 hours your bleeding should be minimal to simple oozing.
Reply:It should not still be bleeding. The clot has obviously dislodged so I suggest you go back to your dentist straight away.
Reply:You should probably give a call to the dentist's office. My surgeon was very agreeable to answering questions after I had my teeth extracted.
Reply:The bleeding usually stops within 15-30 min ,though minor spotting remains . If U r bleeding actively even r 24 hrs may be there is some infection or ur bleeding %26amp; clotting time may be on higher side. Did it was checked before extraction if not get it doen bleeding time is 2- 5 min %26amp; clotting time when blood clogs %26amp; stop bleeding is 3 - 8 min usually. If BT %26amp; CT are normal get ur platelet count done ,low platelet may cause prolongation of bleeding.
Reply:it can ooze for up to a couple days. it's gonna bleed a little more if you take an aspirin everyday or anything else that thins your blood. make sure you don't drink through straws or smoke. also make sure to take it easy following an extraction. the more active you are the more likely it is to bleed. this is very normal and you have nothing to worry about.
Reply:it shouldnt last that long i had my four back teeth pulled at one time and with all four of them they only bleed for about half hout to an hour call your dentist before u get an air bubble in the gums
