“…Complications of wisdom tooth extraction are infection, bleeding, root fracture, tuberosity fracture, soft tissue injury, nerve injury (posterior superior alveolar branch of maxillary), damage of adjacent tooth, and so on. Some case reports regarding postoperative bleeding associated with undiagnosed disorders, such as hemophilia 6,7 , Klippel‐Trenaunay‐Weber syndrome 8 , multiple myeloma 9 , and disseminated intravascular coagulation 10 , have been published, but predicting the risks of hemorrhage before and during extraction can be difficult for healthy patients.…”

Intraoperative bleeding represents serious problems during tooth extractions. We describe two cases of intraoperative massive bleeding at upper wisdom tooth extraction. Case 1: 27‐year‐old male (right side). Local anesthesia, compression hemostasis, tie‐over, and a hemostatic plate were applied. Case 2: 27‐year‐old female (right side). She was taken to the nearest emergency. Radiopaque gauze was inserted. Seven cases of intraoperative bleeding of upper wisdom teeth are previously reported. Medical history and X‐ray images must be carefully reviewed. If unexpected bleeding starts in healthy patients, damage to vascular malformation and/or to the posterior superior alveolar artery should be considered. Facilitate the preparation of local hemostatic items before the operation is recommended.
