Tooth Extraction

In cases where treatment is not possible, there are some things to be considered after the procedure.

Tooth extraction is the last thing the dentist wants to do. In cases where treatment is not possible, there are some things to be considered after the procedure. The sterile sponge placed on the extraction site is bitten tightly for 20-25 minutes. It is not recommended to change the tampon frequently. Changing the tampon frequently disrupts the coagulation tissue desired to form at the extraction site and causes painful healing. A pain reliever other than aspirin should be used against the pain that may occur after the extraction. There may be pain for a few days at the injection sites.

There may be bleeding in the form of leakage after the extraction. Smoking should not be smoked for 24 hours after the extraction. Smoking disrupts the coagulation in the extraction area, may cause inflammation, and may cause pain. Very cold and very hot foods should not be consumed after tooth extraction. Frequent spitting after tooth extraction can cause bleeding to resume, disrupt healing tissue, inflammation, and pain. If the extraction is complicated and takes a long time, it is useful to apply cold. In this way, swelling, bruising and pain can be less.

Do not tamper with the extraction site with your tongue or any other instrument after extraction, do not disrupt wound healing. Patients try to remove the bone that emerges after tooth extraction by mistaking it for teeth while they are poking around with their tongues or hands, wound healing is impaired and pain occurs. Your dentist will warn you if there is a root left. To be sure, see your tooth after extraction, do not confuse the area with your tongue. Mild pain after extraction is normal, it can be stopped with painkillers. However, severe pain that does not go away with painkillers indicates that the wound site is infected and coagulation is impaired. In such cases, you should consult your doctor. Your doctor will make the necessary dressings and recommend antibiotics and painkillers. If you keep your oral hygiene well, 2- Your pain will be relieved in 3 days.
