Dear Sir/Madam,
Yesterday I had 2 teeth, 6 and 7, extracted and the wound was stitched. I would like to know how long bleeding normally lasts. I take Marivarin; I have now stopped it and am receiving Fragmin 7500 E injections. Is it possible that the oral surgeon left something next to the tooth as a kind of drainage so that the blood can drain out, so that it does not become infected?
Thank you in advance for your answer.
Kind regards

Dear Sir/Madam!

In your case, bleeding time is certainly longer than in a healthy patient. Based on clinical experience, bleeding should stop within twelve hours at the latest; otherwise, come to the dental office. Suturing the wound and placing collagen preparations in the wound certainly help to stop bleeding and promote wound healing. Cooling is also recommended. As regards taking Marivarin and Fragmin, follow the instructions of the specialist who prescribed them.

Thank you and have a nice day!
