nope. if they gave you some extra guaze when you left the dentist office just dip it in a glass of warm salt water, squeeze out the excess water, fold it twice and stick it in the space. or you can use a cotton ball. it should form a clot within a few hours. avoid spitting b/c it will pull the clot and start bleeding again. and i know it's hard put try to keep your tounge and fingers away from the extraction area to avoid bacteria getting in there. you probably have a follow up appointment with your dentsit where he will remove the stitches, and check the area.

no, but thanks for the two points

i had 4 teeth pulled so i could get braces i would take some pain killer and put some of the gauss on

If you bleed put some pressure with a pice of gauze, you can rinse with salty or soapy water after 24 hour of the extration. If you can not control the bleeding see your doctor. Do not spit or smoke for 24-48 hours.
