There are 6 things to pay attention to after extraction!
Tooth extraction is a common dental operation in our life, but there are many things to pay attention to after tooth extraction.
If you don’t pay attention to tooth extraction, it is easy to cause inflammation and even threaten oral health.
So what should we pay attention to after extraction?
Who can’t have their teeth extracted?
There are six things to pay attention to after tooth extraction: 1. After tooth extraction, the doctor will let the patient bite 1 or 2 cotton rolls, which is used to compress and stop bleeding and protect the wound.
Generally, the tampon can be spit out about 40 minutes after tooth extraction.
Be careful not to bite the cotton roll for too long.
Some people think that the longer the bite, the better, some people bite for a few hours or even more than ten hours, which is wrong, but the wound is soaked in saliva for a long time, causing infection or poor coagulation.
2. Patients with bleeding tendency should not leave temporarily after tooth extraction. After half an hour, please ask the doctor to see the wound again to see if the blood has stopped.
If there is still bleeding, you should ask your doctor for further treatment, either by applying hemostatic agents, or by suturing the bleeding and taking some oral hemostatic agents.
3. Under normal circumstances, the tampon will no longer bleed after it is spit out.
Saliva with a little bloodshot is normal, if the vomiting of blood is not normal, should be timely contact with the clinic or the nearest hospital stomatology department to see emergency, please deal with the doctor.
Do not take care of yourself, such as taking home cotton into the extraction socket, or daub so-called hemostatic drugs.
These cotton and medicine are not sterile, after use can cause secondary infection, causing more serious consequences.
4, after tooth extraction, we should pay attention to protect the blood clot, do not gargle on the day, do not use the tooth extraction side to chew food, do not frequently lick the wound, but do not repeatedly suck, spit, so as not to destroy the blood clot due to the increase of negative pressure in the mouth.
Two hours after the operation can eat, two days after the operation of the diet should be warm, cool, dilute soft.
5, generally can not take medicine after tooth extraction.
But in the acute inflammatory phase of tooth extraction, or larger trauma, the systemic situation is poor, should be oral antibiotics and pain relievers.
6, after the extraction of teeth generally does not affect the work, can go to work as usual, but do not engage in heavy manual labor.
Smoking and drinking have a bad effect on wound healing. It is very good not to smoke and drink within a day or two after tooth extraction.
