If it was wisdom teeth did you use an ice pack? The advice I was given was to hold my mouth shut with the gauze in between the wounds for a few hours, using the ice pack to help the clotting and alleviate the pain, then take out the gauze and be careful not to irritate the wounds after that. No gargling of water or anything. Warm towels could be used after that to accelerate the healing (though I stuck with ice packs for the pain). After a week, return to have the stitches taken out.
If at any point after the first day there was bleeding or extreme pain, return to the hospital for treatment.
(And wtf, tea bags?)
Also, four teeth at once? My condolences, Bailey.
