Tricks of Impacted 20 Year Old Tooth Extraction Treatment
- Do not eat anything until the anesthesia wears off. You may bite and injure your soft tissues due to numbness.
- Discard the tampon placed in your mouth by your doctor after 30 minutes. Do not replace it with cotton, napkins, etc.
- Avoid spitting and sucking for 24 hours. These actions may cause the clot to break down at the wound site, causing bleeding and the wound not to close.
- Do not smoke for 48 hours. Smoking will cause bleeding and delayed healing of the wound.
- Do not tug on the wound area or poke it with your finger or tongue.
- You may feel pain as the anesthesia starts to wear off. Take a painkiller – other than aspirin – when you feel the anesthesia starting to wear off.
- Take care not to chew on the surgical site, it is recommended to eat soft foods as much as possible.
- Avoid very hot, acidic foods and drinks.
- Keep the surgical site clean. Start using mouthwash 24 hours after the procedure and clean the area twice a day with mouthwash. You can start brushing your teeth after 24 hours
- Be sensitive and careful when brushing your teeth near the surgical site.
