Blood clot in face after wisdom teeth, what are the remedies?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Time: You'll need to give your cheek some time to heal. The blood clot needs to be resorbed by your body.

Bruise?: I assume you mean a bruise. This is common. Will resolve over time. Moist heat will help to dissipate the pigment from the blood. Expect a series of color changes for a while. See oral surgeon if other symptoms develop.
