After a tooth extraction

The removal of a tooth is a small surgical procedure.

The following suggestions will help you to recover quickly without complications.

  • The gauze placed in the wound should be kept in place for at least 1 hour.
  • As long as you feel numb, you should be very careful not to bite your tongue, cheek or lips.
  • Avoid smoking, hot drinks and alcohol as well as intense activity for 24 hours.
  • If you need a painkiller, avoid aspirin since it causes hemorrhaging.
  • Avoid crunchy foods for the first day, and chew from the other side for a few days after the procedure.
  • Don’t brush your teeth in area near the extraction for the first day, but brush the rest of your teeth and rinse gently.
  • If swelling occurs, apply cool compresses periodically.
  • If symptoms persist, contact the clinic.
