Guest Andrea Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 Re: Lost my wisdom Stitches?? Man, don't tell me this. I gotta get all 4 of mine pulled. And I am DREADING IT!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously though.............I have heard that biting down on wet tea bags helps. The tannic acid in the tea helps stop the blood from flowing.

RangerClay Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 Re: Lost my wisdom My wife had just one pulled two weeks ago and she is still getting food caught in the pit. I cannot understand why you are still bleeding. If you are still bleeding by nightfall you may want to call a doctor. Ranger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeygirl Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 Re: Lost my wisdom Oooh yuck! I had 2 teeth pulled, not wisdom, for braces and that was bad enough. Maybe just try to keep pressure on the bleeding areas as the pressure will slow it down. Also you can try sucking on an ice cube or hold something cold on your cheek or the tooth area as cold will usually help the bleeding to slow down. Don't take any tylenol or ibuprofen because those won't help the blood to clot. Good luck and if nothing works, call a doctor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newarcher Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 Re: Lost my wisdom Point about the tea bags.....get lots of them and change them often and NEVER EVER NEVER EVER fall asleep with one in your mouth. It will eventually burst. I can't see what your problem is...I never had pain one--well that was until the next day when I was eating doritos (cautiously) and jabbed one in the wound. Other than that, I was fine. Call the doctor about the bleeding and ask for some better pain meds....percocet works well for me. New Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarvDog Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 Re: Lost my wisdom Gosh! I had mine out when I was 15 with NO problem. I would stuff some gauze in there to stop the bleeding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QDMAworks4me Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 Re: Lost my wisdom I was eating a peanut and got it caught in my holes after I had them pulled, those holes are still somewhat there and I had them pulled 7 years ago. Good luck, it sure is not a lot of fun!!! I did not have a real problem with blood, but I wonder did they tell you to eat solid foods, because I was on really good medication and drank most of my meals (carnation instant breakfast, nothing fun) I just wondered if food is tearing your gums open again?

archerjg Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 Re: Lost my wisdom Keep the gauze in there and lots of pressure. I had mine out in the morning and bled until that evening. If you are still bleeding after about 8 hours call the dentist. Archerjg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeygirl Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 Re: Lost my wisdom Luckily those two teeath I mentioned I had pulled for braces, they were pulled with the purpose of helping make room for my wisdom teeth and thankfully all of mine came up fine, whew!
