How to Heal Faster After Having a Tooth Removed
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 ก.พ. 2017
- So you just had a tooth removed. The dentist probably rattled off a list of directions for you to follow but was talking way to fast and may have confused you with all the information thrown at you after an anxiety producing experience. I try to avoid the information overload with my patients but it's not always successful.
Today's video goes into detail about what to do after having a tooth pulled so you can listen again in the comfort of your own home if you are confused. I've also posted the printed directions we give to our patients summarizing the most important things to do to promote faster healing.
Apply pressure with gauze to stop the bleeding
After tooth extraction, it’s important for a blood clot to form to stop the bleeding and begin the healing process. That’s why we ask you to bite on a gauze pad for 30-45 minutes after the appointment. If the bleeding or oozing still persists, place another gauze pad and bite firmly for another 30 minutes. You may have to do this several times. If you run out of gauze, you may take a tea bag of any kind and firmly bite down on it for 30 minutes. Pink or blood-tinged saliva may be seen for 2-3 days following the surgery and does not indicate a problem.
Minimize swelling to minimize discomfort
Swelling is the body’s normal reaction to surgery and healing. An ice pack or an unopened bag of frozen peas or corn applied to the area will keep swelling to a minimum. Apply the ice to the outside of the face, 20 minutes on and then 20 minutes off, while awake for the first 24 hours. After the first 24 hours, stop using ice and use a warm moist heat compresses to relieve swelling and aid in muscle discomfort. The swelling will begin to decrease after the third day.
Pain medication
Unfortunately, it is normal to experience mild to moderate pain after a tooth extraction. Try to take some pain medication before the numbness wears off. Ibuprofen (Advil) or naproxen (Aleve), are both good over the counter medications to take that will also help to minimize swelling. Dr. Kamodia recommends 600mg of ibuprofen (3 tablets) every 6 hours for the first 3 days. If that is not providing enough pain relief, alternating the ibuprofen with extra strength Tylenol (500mg) will help.
How to promote faster healing
After the blood clot forms, it is important not to disturb or dislodge the clot as it aids healing. Do NOT smoke, suck on straws, or rinse vigorously for one week. These activities will dislodge or dissolve the clot and retard the healing process. Limit vigorous exercise for the next 24-48 hours as this will increase blood pressure and may cause more bleeding from the extraction site.
Diet
Your first day will consist of soft, cool foods such as: yogurt, applesauce, mashed potatoes, cottage cheese, and ice cream. Soup is a great option as long as it is room temperature. Avoid foods like nuts, sunflower seeds, popcorn, chips etc., which may get lodged in the socket. Focus on drinking lots of fluids and eating soft, nutritious foods.
Long term healing
The best way to prevent infection and ensure healing is to keep your mouth clean. Clean your mouth thoroughly after each meal beginning the day after surgery by rinsing GENTLY with warm salt water. Use a soft bristle toothbrush and toothpaste every morning and night to keep your teeth and the extraction site clean. This will speed healing and help keep your mouth fresh.
After a few days you should feel fine and can resume your normal activities. If you have heavy bleeding, severe pain, or swelling that is not decreasing after 3 days please call our office immediately-(607)-785-1900. - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี

The easiest part is getting the tooth out, the hardest part is dealing with it all afterwards 😫
That's the goddamn truth
Even that wasn’t easy..
True
Yes
Hell yeah no smoking no eat no drinking (pop) shit like damn
I didn’t feel any pain when leaving the doc... It suddenly hit me when the meds wore off tho.. OOOOF
SAMMEEEE
I know what you mean
I just got mine out a hour ago or somethin...how bad does it hurt 😥
when that anesthesia and freeze wears off, IT KILLSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Same 😩
Why don't these dentists, periodontists or who ever extracts the teeth have print-outs of post extraction instructions? Gees that really amazes me that I have to go on TH-cam and search the internet to find out what to do...I mean, do they really think we're going to remember oral instructions right after the trauma of having our teeth pulled?? I don't think so!
I just got a tooth pulled and she asks me before did you read the instructions I gave you on what to do after, I go yeah sure. Get home look for them she either gave me no such thing or I lost the piece of paper, either way here I am and I've already done everything wrong like smoke an hour after.
I got my post care info before they took my teeth out, might want to verbally ask them even if they should give them to you without asking, it's better to be proactive
We do have in Pakistan.
I'm pretty sure most places (at least specialist) have a post op instructions sheet
Dodged a Bullet my oral surgeon gave me a hand out for after care
I really need your prayer for the whole teeth restoration, please.
I got extracted 6hrs now. I am hungry. But afraid to eat
Max Tammie I see it’s been 10 months since you posted this. What did you eat? I just got mine pulled out 3 or 4 hours ago

I love her voice, it's so lovely and gentle. I think it's very important to be gentle with your patients especially when the anxiety is high when going through dental appointments and surgeries 🥺❤️
I’m currently at the end of my 5th day post op (four impacted wisdoms removed with twilight sedation), and I just wanted to post this comment across a few videos to calm anyone down who may be panicking like I was. Because I was panicking. Never had surgery before and I read and watched every horror story on the internet. I just want to say that I had a good, experienced surgeon perform my extraction and that I dealt with NO unbearable pain, did NOT take any narcotic painkillers, and have been instead alternating ibuprofen and acetaminophen (stopped that today on day 5). The sedation did NOT make me act weird, for those of you who fear that part. The third day was indeed the worst, but completely doable. I would describe it as discomfort at its worst. To me, the whole process has been no different than what it was like to lose teeth as a child, along with a sore and stiff jaw. Hope this helps anyone, because I read so many bad comments and I was completely freaked out the week prior to surgery.
Thank you for posting this. People tend to only write comments when they are anxious or had a bad experience. I am very worried since 10 years ago I had a really bad dry socket, though I did not follow any rules at all, the oral surgeon gave me no guidelines at that time. This time I am 8 month pregnant (so no heavy pain killers) and the other lower one is continuously inflamed, so it will have to be removed this week. It is good to hear that it does not necessarily have to be a horrible experience :)
anna_in_lux sure thing. I’m sorry that happened to you. I’m super glad I have been able to avoid it. Hopefully your next surgeon gives you appropriate instructions...that’s inexcusable that the last did not. I’ve read online that the ones that are infected/hurting are actually easier to deal with post extraction because the pain of healing is less! Mine weren’t bothering me but maybe this will apply to you. Hope everything works out for you!
weird - my first day was the worst, 2nd day was an immense reduction
I am at the end of my 3rd day. Very sore and stiff but still tolerable. My face is very swollen though so it's hard for me to touch my teeth together. I hope tomorrow will be better.
my sister got sleep disorder she extension of teeth and faces many problems .She get mental problems and suicidal thoughts
Death seems better than dealing with this pain, all of sudden my sensitivity reached its max,
real talk bro this pain got me thinking about ending it all
😂 this teeth have me suicidal aswell but we tripping
I feel everyone’s pain I had mine taken out 5 days ago and it sucks🥺Idk what’s worse..getting my tooth pulled or being on an apple sauce diet while it heals😹

@@MrTeezy54 idk how you didn’t eat anything I’d cry😂
I’m 47 and 7 days post op. I had all 4 wisdom teeth removed and am still in mind blowing pain after another visit to the oral surgeon today.
Wisdom teeth extraction is a young person’s game. If it needs to be done and you’re young do not wait. I’m doing everything right. Thank you for all of the tips but it can truly be awful.
had one of mine out when i was 42, mate the pain after was horrid...sharp stabbin pain...had tooth out yesdy and im feelin same type pain all last night...worst pain eveeer....all u can do is take antibiotics...
@@smofla13 at what age did your wisdom tooth erupt?
am in mid 30s and just got one removed recently and really its not an easy thing to heal from.
@@diauser3327 one broke and had removed when i was in me 20s..and other one broke few yrs ago...that was the worst as it took the woman nearly hour to get out (apparently i have dense bone) anyways they bruised all my jaw and was in pain pain for 4 mnths after. Sucked.. i coudnt even put my head bk for a looong time.
Just turned 28 last week and got all 4 wisdom teeth removed yesterday. This is not a fun feeling and you do NOT want to prolong this in your later years. It's not worth it
Im 7 days out from 1 molar extracted didnt feel any pain until day 3 now im taking so many pills just to get me threw all of it, called my dentist and he wrote me a perscription today for amoxocilian since im out of town 😭 pain is awfull i think i got dry socket or something the tooth in front of the molar that was taken out hurts so bad, before i had it pulled it had a root canal and a crown on top but i guess the tooth cracked hence why i pulled it, that pain i had i the worse i ever felt i mean to the point were i wanted to jump off my roof it was just awfull but then they gave me pills and it cleared it up within 2 days but since i pulled it its 25% of the pain i felt when it was still there, i dont wish the pain on my worst enemy its just GOD AWFULL
Why wisdom teeth called wisdom in reality it is useless painful teeth?..
Tsering Dhondup I think because your wisdom teeth are the last teeth to come in and with age it is believed that wisdom is gained
OGTumble thank u dear... before I really don't get why it wisdom. Thank you for your information.. thanks a lots.. I have one more question can I ask?...
Wisdom teeth were useful thousands of years ago when man was made to eat mostly meat and tougher foods. Through evolution our mouths have gotten smaller and thus wisdom teeth are no longer necessary.
This also explains why most people can not have them fit properly in their mouths. If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask me.
Through pain, we gain wisdom...lol
They are usefull if you take proper care of them. You are not obligated to have them pulled.
I'm really hungry but I can't eat until I heal so now I'm here trying to figure out how to heal faster.
Apple sauce, cottage cheese, soups mashed potatoes, oatmeal
Thank you for the info.Have a great restr of this week...Your family and husband have a true gift of the Most High,bless you...
U don't know drama till u visit the dentist....lol i was so so dramatic

this is a great comment - 10/10 wish more ppl would see
Good one
You know you’ve wanted to do that for years and are ecstatic you finally found an excuse.
Got mine extracted and I felt great,no swelling just took my antibiotics and I’m eating regular foods.
Make sure the gauze or tea bag is wet before placing it on the extraction area, else it will stick to the clot and pull it out.
Thank you
Healing from not having one's tooth or teeth, emotionally, is also really important.
Had two molars extracted last week & I didn't feel any pain since luckily. Hope I don't get any & y'all pain ease up after watching this video.
lucky guy wish i was the same
2nd day post wisdom tooth extraction: kept gauze in for 2 hours then removed it. I never repacked it. Ate mostly soft foods: banana, clementines, yogurt, and eggs for dinner. I never took any ibuprofen nor did I need any. On a scale of 1-10 after local anesthetic wore off I was about a 2. Most pain was during extraction. Dentist had to give me 2 additional shots of lidocaine after he hit a nerve.
Thank you G
*were all in this together*
Quite an informative video. It helped me a lot after one of my tooth was extracted.
I had a wisdom tooth taken out yesterday. I wasn’t given stitches, gorz, antibiotics or anything by my dentist. He was rather rough and damages the corner of my lips and inside in my gum. I found eating warm food actually made my mouth feel better. But I’m sticking to softer foods- pasta, beans on toast, mince meat, yogurt, jelly noodles. Not too much chewing to do. During the day I can handle the pain I just watch tv/youtube but at night it’s difficult to sleep with the constant ache. I usually love to read but I can’t concentrate right now on my books due to the pain. From today Iv washed my mouth out a couple times with mouth wash. I’ve taken ibuprofen during the day and I took come co-codamol at night but the pain hasn’t completely gone. At one point yesterday I was overcome with a sudden urge of wanting to vom so I had to go outside into the cold air and crouch down for a few mins to feel better. How long (days) will the pain last? And how do I sleep at night with the pain as even pain killers don’t seem to fully get rid of the pain.
Depending on the "Damage" done to your gum, the pain should be gone by the third day (soreness is normal) BUT you really need to get some antibiotics, extractions get infected easily! Go to your dentist and demand them if you have to! If the pain is still happening after 3-4 days you have a chance you got dry socket, you will have to go check with your dentist to make sure it isn't that.
HER SMILE THO...
😀
its blinding!
You can tell she looks after her teeth
My 3rd day after wisdom tooth extracted. Minor pain on day 1, didn't need any pain killer med, thereafter no pain, just minor irriation and swelling. I haven't eaten any food, just 1 cup of coffee and water throughout the day. I don't want any food disturbing the healing process. I rinse my mouth with room temperature salt water through out the day.
The pain didn't hurt as bad as I thought it would. Still hurts, but I can handle it until I smile for too long.
im so grateful to the dentists who make these informative videos, i have autism and get very sensory overloaded at the dentist so they gave me nitrous to get through my extraction but that meant when they told me the instructions i was still a little loopy and didnt process it very well lol, and my reading comprehension isnt as good as being able to hear instructions explained out loud so the pamphlet didnt do much for me. luckily it seems i remembered more than i thought but i didnt know about the tea bag trick or that i could take ibuprofen for the swelling, thank you for this 👍🏻❤
Get black tea, wet the tea bag, and swap out the gauze for that as soon as you can. I used gauze for 7 hours and was still bleeding significantly. Once I used the black tea bags the bleeding slowed significantly after an hour and stopped entirely after 30 more minutes from that. I found out some people can bleed for up to three days just using gauze and pressure.
I have just switched to a tea bag. Hopefully, it'll stop
Thank you and God bless you for great advice. So please advise me how long do I have to keep tea bag on or do I need to replace it?
We have one of the greatest dentist where i stay, got my second wisdom tooth removed yesterday, procedure took less than 15 minutes , tooth extraction less that 60 seconds after waiting for injection to numb the area. No pain after extraction, nothing at all, no pain killers taken. Following day felt like nothing happened.
This is extremely helpful, thanks for this.
worst pain of my life. i’m 14 and had to get 8 teeth removed. i tried everything. ibuprofen, tylenol, numbing gel, diclofenac, NOTHING was working i had to take oxy just to get the pain to stop. no infections just too much trauma to my gums. i felt like ending it all omg.
Because I got a useful tip in the comment "Have painkillers when you get home from the dentist", to deal with the after pain.
Here are my tips:
-Have a bit of coconut oil or melted beeswax and swirl in your mouth gently - oil will coat the sore gum and create a lining to protect from any type of irritants and simultaneously help to heal. In addition, after doing so it will be easier to drink and eat.
-Also, while drinking and eating you can tilt your head to avoid any contact with the sore area.
-Eat protein based food such as eggs and fish, to accelerate the healing process.
Lmao I wish I saw tip number one when I got home. Got them removed today, my mom dropped me off at home didn’t tell me anything to do and said she’d go to the store to get ice cream and soft foods lol. Turned out she was gone for two hours I used ice. But it hurt like a butt cheek on a stick😂 it’s been 4 hrs no and I’m bout to go to bed. Eating a shake made it feel sooo much better lol. Thanks for your tips :)
No rinsing at all for the first 24 hrs after an extraction. After this 24 hr period then you're supposed to warm salt water gentle rinse 3 - 4 times per day. This is supposed to keep the area clean and promote healing. That's the info I got at my oral surgeon's office.
very good tips, part of this i too did unconsciously, but the oil stuff would really be helpful.
@@Catajbr That is helpful for TIPICAL info for any surgeon, because i asked my surgeon on how many time i have to rinse, and he told me to do that AFTER every meal and not 3-4 times at all.
thus it the tip I’ve been looking for .., “ to eat”
Good information and good teeth, very well done dr karmodia, i will take your advise.
Just had a tooth removed almost 2 weeks ago. My jaw ached for days, and I could hardly open my mouth. Luckily time an patience made it bearable, and it's almost completely healed now. First straw I used, did not feel great on my healing mouth. But I had a stitch, so it helped me heal faster. No dry socket issues at all. Used a lot of salt water to bathe the socket. No swishing and No spitting. Just drool it out, after tilting your head back and forth.
I’ve had the worst teeth pains ever 10/10 pain so I wasn’t even worried about pain. On day 3 and have literally 0 pain
Well explained. It's been 3 days today I removed my wisdom tooth. I am feeling lot of pain, littl cold and throat pain. I am having pain killer twice in a day. Could you suggest how long stiches would take to heal and when this pain will go away. ?
Dr. Kamodia, Thank-you so much for this video. My Dentist is great, but they were all out of the office today at a training on the new equipment they were getting in this week, so I couldn't call back with my follow up questions. You just answered every question I had. Thank you again. All the best.
just had my wisdom teeth removed a few a hours ago this was helpful and idk if it’s the ibuprofen but I feel better now literally , thanjs
perfect! i have had 10 teeth pulled. "i like my soda and candy, brushing only slows it for me" but my brother is having his first wisdom tooth pulled today and i tried explaining how to care for it. but this right here is probably THE BEST explanation i have every heard. thank you
Good looking, well spoken, and very educated.
Hi, I really appreciate your video guide, Thank you.
I have a question, It's possible to go back to the training (Running or Swimming) after 3 days of my Wisdom Teeth extraction?
Thank you so much for an informative video.
Just got 6 teeth pulled... so ya I needed this
I got five 🥲
oof, that must've sucked
15 hours after leaving the dentist my clot is still swelling and bleeding. I ate soup (oops) smoked a bong(oops) and gargled salt water. When the clot was half the size of my mouth and blood was still dripping I put gauze in again hoping to push it down and ended up destroying the clot and starting the whole process again. Then I found this video. I will try ice now as it is almost 4am in California and I have a clot covering the entire left side of my mouth that has not stopped bleeding for 15 hours now. Thanks for this video.
You’re a savage 😎
@@bigd5080 that actually turned into an oral surgery. Turned out to be bleeding in my gums from the dentists assistant making a mistake, not me being my badass savage self. I almost died from the amount of blood I swallowed and haven’t been to a dentist since.

Hi! Thank You for great explanation. I do have a question.. I heard that before and after tooth extraction is good to use and keep using a Vitamin C because it helps to heal faster. One dentist said that so i am curious is that true? Thank You and God bless!
Great tips, Doctor
Thank you! This helped so much!
Okaaay...y’all kinda scaring the shit outta me with some of these stories man.
If your dentist is smart enough they will inform you to immediately take painkillers before the actually pain starts.( best ibuprofen or Motrin) 600 mg. Tylenol can increase the bleeding so that’s a BIG NO.
After a cut in the mouth I have often placed ulcer cream, kenalog over the cut which helps heal can I do this?

Hello,
Thank you for the information. I had a molar extracted 3 days ago (number 30). I stopped bleeding right away after the extraction and have had no pain and no swelling. I have been rinsing with salt water multiple times per day and brushing/flossing twice a day as I normally do. I have been extra careful not to touch or disrupt the area so it can heal properly, but I have noticed that there is a white, slimy looking, bio film over it. I have been tempted to go in with a wet gauze and pat it clean a little. What do you think about that?
hey so im not the only one that sees a white thing looking like a peice of a teeth where that teeth got pulled tuesday so seens im wooried about that place im going to the dentest tommrow so they can check it i got it pulled out tuesday

perfect teeth, jealous
I had an upper molar extracted about 60 hours ago and I honestly don't feel anything. My only question is: is there a way to tell if the site is healing nicely by looking at it? Should I see a scab? I would much rather not have a dry socket. I highly doubt it's as painful as many say, however I fear the wallet pain is far more prevalent.
There will be no scab forming, but with my gum, it looked a bit red and slighty ripped open when I first had it pulled. however after a week or so it starts to look more covered and sealed
What if you have weak wisdom tooth roots?, since my impacted wisdom tooth have them i really need to know if they deal less or more pain after it is extracted?
I had teeth extractions a few days ago and was NOT given gauze because I was told that the dentist sewed up the area tightly. I did still bleed afterwards. I am seeing online that gauze is always put in place to aid in clotting, so I am a bit concerned that a clot has not formed. It is postop day 4 and I have no pain. Bleeding has stopped so too late for tea bags or gauze now. I do have some ugly bruises, black/purplish. Hope these fade. Do some dentists NOT put gauze in after extractions?
It’s been a week since I got my wisdom teeth removed and it’s still in the healing process , less pain but still hurts alittle . I still can’t chew , and when I do eat food gets stuck in the hole and idk how to get it out 😭😭
Maybe you had a dry socket
I had my teeth removed today. I passed out the moment I felt sleepy from the sedative.
In bed or on the floor. I hope you didnt hit your head
@@stbam1965 oh on the doctor’s table.
I just got mine extracted today. It's quite scary trying to eat food after this whole process is done. I just stuck with soft food like bread. Hopefully it heals by tomorrow and I can start brushing or mouth washing
Got mine done today and it was terrible! I still had felt my deep nevers while they tried to pull them out I was kicking the seat of how bad it was and sweating they struggled for a good 30 min to take it out. Such a bad DR! She seemed stress of trying to get it out also. Make sure guys find the right one or just pay the money for what you need to get fixed
My tooth removal was pain free and it’s been 12 hours now..
How many did they pull
do you continue to use a gauze after the bleeding is to a minimum
No. It will heal on itself. As long it's not too much.
Mine are still bleeding very very little (3 days later). Was this normal for you? I'm hoping the sutures didn't fall off.
Yes keep it in there the whole week Gabby. This way you dont ask stupid questions. Outloud anyway
Ok, I need help. I’m 15 - I had 12 teeth retracted out in the beginning of august - it’s now January and my gums have healed, and I can feel bumps in them ( I’m presuming that’s my teeth) but nothing is growing, like at all.... how long should I be waiting for?

5 days should be fine. Was for me. I'm 8 days in and I'm eating toast and all that. You need to.start eating harder food asap really so your jaw muscle doesn't get paralysis.
@@Despair32 when did it stop bleeding cuz I took my gauze out and the blood clot came out with it :(
@@kimr.p240 i left my gauze in for an hour. it stopped bleeding for me on the 4th day. during those 4 days. day 2-3 were the worst. i had a little blood day 6 due to chewing. but im 2 weeks in and my jaw is all good and no pain. just one little ulcer.
@@Despair32 okay thank you, also do u think I can eat a pbandj right now lol it's my second day
Thank you for the advice
What will happen, in case if any food particle remains in the socket?
