Bleeding Bite down a gauze pad or place your fingers on a gauze pad over the extraction spot for 30 minutes after surgery.

Alternatively, use a dampened tea bag for the same amount of time. The tannic acid in the tea contracts the bleeding vessels, which helps to set the blood clot.

Diet After bleeding stops, drink lots of lukewarm or cold fluids to keep your body hydrated. Then, start with soft foods such as pudding, eggs, mashed potatoes and cooked cereals and eat regular meals as advised by your oral surgeon Sydney.

Mouth Care Gently rinse your mouth with diluted mouth wash or salt water. Limit eating, drinking and talking for the first two hours after the surgery.

Avoid rigorous exercise for a few days, as well as smoking or spitting as long as there is bleeding.
