    Canal root problem?
    Hello
    I had a canal root procedure done on my top front tooth today but the doctor told me it was bleeding and the blood won't stop. He plugged the tooth with I don't know what and sent me home.
    Is this normal? Shouldn't he let the blood flow instead of forcing it back?
    Will that make any blood clots or something serious?

    It was probably the only way he could keep you from losing too much blood. If you start having more intense pain, don't hesitate to call his emergency number. Once in a while people will get what dentists refer to as a "dry socket" from not clotting and healing properly. Hope you have a speedy recovery.
