How long will the blood clot drop after tooth extraction

After tooth extraction, blood will form in the tooth extraction socket. The blood will coagulate slowly. Generally, it is necessary to ask the patient to bite the cotton ball tightly for half an hour. This half hour is to allow the blood to coagulate. The blood clot will not fall off. If the blood clot falls off, it may cause dry socket disease, which is a very serious postoperative complication. Blood clots will slowly organize in a week or so, forming granulation tissue, granulation tissue in a month or two slowly transformed into bone tissue, in three months or so when the granulation tissue formed by blood clots are all formed into normal bone tissue, tooth extraction wounds can be completely healed. Blood clots can not fall off, but on the contrary, tooth extraction wounds healing has great benefits.
