Put pressure on it: Bite on some gauze to stabilize, and reorganize the clot.

Time frame?: How long ago was the tooth extracted? If today, apply pressure. Otherwise, leave it alone and follow instructions from oral surgeon. Will probably be fine. If you develop pain, likely dry socket. Then see oral surgeon.
