We will help you look and feel
better by sharing our knowledge
about current procedures in
implant and cosmetic dentistry.
We will work with you to help
you make an informed decision
about the form of treatment to
restore your oral health, and
discuss the ways to care for your
teeth.
Bleeding The gauze we placed over your extraction site(s) should
stay for thirty minutes or until you get home whichever is longer.
There may be some bleeding or oozing after you remove the gauze
pack. If necessary, place clean gauze thick enough to hold pressure
directly on the extraction site. Maintain the pressure for 30 minutes.
Repeat if needed. Do not suck on the extraction site. Do not drink
through a straw. Do not rinse or smoke until tomorrow; limit
strenuous activity for 24 hours.
Swelling and Pain You may have some pain and notice some
swelling. Apply ice to the face fifteen minutes on and fifteen minutes
off for three hours today.
Medications Take two acetaminophen tablets or two ibuprofen
tablets every four hours for the rest of today. Take the first dose
while you are still numb.
Diet After the extraction, drink liquids and eat soft foods. Do not
chew on the extraction site.
Rinsing Starting tomorrow, rinse chlorhexidine after breakfast and at
bedtime. Rinse with warm salt water after lunch and dinner. It is
especially important to rinse after meals to keep the socket clean and
clear of food particles. Avoid smoking!
