Under normal circumstances, the doctor will ask the patient to bite the dry cotton ball for 30 minutes after the tooth is pulled out. If there is still bleeding symptoms after taking it off, go to the hospital for a follow-up visit. The doctor will check what is the cause. If the clot is caused by the extraction window, it is necessary to re-dry the cotton ball; if the bleeding is caused by the torn gums, the torn gums can be sutured; if there is bleeding in other parts, symptomatic treatment is required. For bleeding symptoms after tooth extraction, if you want to prevent them, you must follow the doctor's postoperative advice, do not exercise vigorously, and brush your teeth and gargle within 24 hours.
