“How long does bleeding last after dental implants?”

There should be minimal to NO bleeding after implant surgery

If proper placement of a single implant is done correctly, you may have some minor oozing for 24 to 72 hours. Anything longer than that, you should contact your provider immediately and be seen for a follow-up.

Hello,

Bleeding is something that is very important in any procedure. There is usually not a lot of bleeding with implants. However, sometimes the implant can be placed at the same time the tooth is extracted. If this is the case residual bleeding is usually because of the extraction and the gums healing. Bleeding usually subsides around 30-60 min after the procedure. If the extraction was done at the same time as the implant placed it is possible (but rare) for the bleeding to start up again within the next 24 hours. This is usually minor and stops again. If the bleeding continues for longer or starts up again the person who placed the implant should be contacted.
This is also something that the doctor usually goes over with you after the implant/extraction. Hope this helps

My best to you!

Hello, 

Usually, the bleeding should subside after an hour or so. Unless you are on a blood thinner, it may take a little longer. 

You may taste a bit of blood in you saliva for a couple of days, but it should be very little. The implant site and blood should closed by sutures and therefore little to no bleeding immediately after the surgery is completed. Although you are young, if you are on blood thinners bleeding can be prolonged. If you are concerned about excessive bleeding, please contact the dentist who placed your implant.

Usually little to no bleeding
