Continuous Salivation After Removal Of Growing Teeth Underneath The Gums Followed By Stitches.
Hello, today I had some teeth growing underneath my gums removed and involved stitches and I'm worried because I can't stop salivating which causes the blood from the operated area to run down and gauze doesn't really help it just gets mushy and wet fast

Please revert back to your clinician as soon as possible, there seems to be uncontrolled bleeding.
However for time being, apply the gauze and maintain the pressure for atleast 20 minutes followed by intermittent cold pack on the face.
