Thanks for using Health Care Magic.

Read your query.

Good , the bleeding has stopped.
I would advice you to visit your as soon as possible and get it resutured .Since you have removed multiple number of teeth and to avoid any more bleeding and further infection,it is better to get it redone.

Do warm saline gargling.
Avoid forceful gargling as it may dislodge the clot leading to dry socket.

Continue the medication as advice by your dentist .

Hope this was useful.

Thanks and regards.
