If the dentist stitches you up, they should give you whatever gauze and whatever instructions. You're going to look same a chipmunk for a couple of days. Coldness (ice packs, cold liquid bottle, ice in a towel) help substantially for the swelling, ten minutes on, ten minutes off; especially for the first 24 hours. After that, it gets annoying, though.
If you hit stitches and you experience bleeding, try salt water. DO NOT SWISH, DO NOT SPIT. You'll make the Atlantic bleed again. You want to better as fast as possible, so meet don't do it. Instead of swishing, rock your head, mitt right mitt right. Let the liquid flow in and discover of your mouth. That's the hardest part. Drool seems to wants to become out.
You'll be okay. You're in the safekeeping of professionals.
