Question:
I just got my tooth pulled?
I got my tooth pulled. Im still numb. Im biting on a tea bag right now. Is there anything that would help stop the bleeding more quickly? I can't to a salt water wash untill tomorrow. Thanks!

I actually work for a dentist...there's not really anything else you can do. Just keep applying pressure with gauze...we recommend the tea bag as well. Don't smoke & don't drink through a straw - it'll pull the clot out that helps it STOP bleeding and you could get a dry socket which is very painful! Good luck!
