A member asked:

Would a tooth extraction location bleed heavily if the clot has come out?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Extraction bleeding: It is possible that if something disrupts the blood clot that bleeding can occur. If this is the case you need to see your oral surgoen or dentist asap. It is likely a suture or 2 may need to be placed to cover the extraction site and put pressure on it to control bleeding.
