Hello. New to the forums and I hope i don't break any protocol. If so, I am sorry. I just had an extraction on a molar 3 hours ago (non wisdom) and held the gauze in my mouth for 20-25 mins. But then the pain got worse ( My pain meds script wouldn't be ready for another hour). When I got home, I rinsed a few times, spit and used a straw to drink while I waited for my script to be filled because the pain was so bad. I ignored what you shouldn't do after an extraction. (Yes, I broke most rules and feel foolish). How can i tell if I dislodged the clot and/or am I able to form a new clot?
