It is normal to bleed for a few hours after a tooth extraction, but sometimes our bodies are unable to form a proper blood clot, and we start to bleed excessively. The bleeding won’t stop, and we don’t know what we can do to fix the problem. First and foremost, the number one option is to always visit your dentist so he can take a look at the extraction site to see if any further steps are necessary to get the bleeding to stop.
Bite down on a wet Green Tea bag for one hour: This may sound strange, but some tea bags contain a compound called tannic acid. Tannic acid is a phytochemical found in some teas, and it acts as a vasoconstrictor. This means it helps constrict your blood vessels local to the area that it is applied. Wet the green tea bag with warm water and bite down on it for one hour. Continue to change your tea bags after that until the bleeding has completely stopped. It is very important to understand that not all teabags contain Tannic Acid, so it very important to check the ingredients prior to using them.
Not only can these activities cause excessive bleeding, the may also contribute into form a dry socket, which is a very painful condition cause by a dislodging of the extraction sites blood clot. Excessive bleeding after a tooth extraction can be quite common.

Excessive forces inside the mouth that can create suction forces should be avoided at all costs. This includes sucking, spitting, smoking, and the use of a straw for a minimum of 72 hours. Not only can these activities cause excessive bleeding, the may also contribute into form a dry socket, which is a very painful condition cause by a dislodging of the extraction sites blood clot.
