Today I had my wisdom tooth removed. It wasn't that bad like I thought and I'm eating soft foods, not drinking out of straws, avoiding hot and cold food, trying not to spit too much and replace my gauze 30mins. The thing is the bleeding has went down and is now a sort of brownish-red tint. It's still bleeding enough where I need a gauze. I just don't know when can I stop using gauze, like when it stops bleeding right away do I stop using gauzes or if there is a pink tint to the gauze then will I stop? I'm trying to avoid a dry socket since I heard you can get that from exposing the area of the wisdom tooth removal to air.
When can I not use gauzes for wisdom tooth removal?
