A member asked:
What is the normal color of the blood clot after wisdom teeth are removed?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Same as other clots: A blood clot from almost anywhere in the body will be bright red or blood colored. If it has been exposed to the air for a period of time it will be darker red. Try to let them fall out of your mouth rather than actively rinsing your mouth. This gives an extraction site time to get a good start on healing.

Dark red: A blood clot over the area where a wisdom tooth has been removed is dark red.
