After Tooth Extraction;
-Continue to bite the sponge in your mouth for 1 hour. Try to keep your chin still. Movements such as chewing will increase your bleeding. If you experience a mouthful of bleeding after 1 hour, consult your doctor immediately. Bleeding in the form of leakage after the extraction is not important.
-Do not eat anything for 2 hours. If your anesthesia does not wear off after 2 hours; Be careful not to bite your tongue, lips and cheeks. After this period, consume soft and warm foods. Stay away from acidic and carbonated drinks for at least 2 days. Stay away from milk and dairy products for at least 2 days.
– Do not rinse or spit for 2 days. While rinsing your mouth, calmly wet your mouth and gently drain the liquid from the untreated side. The pressure you apply may dislodge the blood clot and disrupt your recovery and comfort for at least 2 weeks.
Keep the ice pack given to you in contact with the extraction area from the outside for at least 30 minutes. Take a 10-minute break and start cold application again. Unless instructed otherwise, apply cold for at least 6 hours. The cold you apply will both speed up your recovery and prevent your face from swelling.
– Continue the medications you started using before the shooting (antibiotics, painkillers, etc.) unless your doctor tells you otherwise.
