Managing Discomfort After Dental Extraction: Tips & Tricks

How to manage discomfort during the healing process after dental extraction?

Answered on 23rd May '24

Cold compresses are an effective way to deal with the discomfort that comes along with healing after a dental extraction. Apply a cold compress to the affected area for 10-20 minutes every hour for the first 24-48 hours. Next, put a warm compress in place. Make an effort to stay away from any solid food and use hot beverages, instead, on the first days go for softer foods and cold drinks. If the pain doesn’t go away or gets worse, do not hesitate and visit your dentist or oral surgeon immediately.

Sir I drink accedently chlorhexidine mouthwash little bit what should I do now please help me

Male | 20

Drinking mouthwash by accident brings conce­rn. Chlorhexidine is strong; it may cause stomach pain, nause­a, and dizziness. These e­ffects could go away alone. Drink lots of water to dilute­ mouthwash. But if unwell or your issues continue, se­ek medical care.

Frenulum tear pain and irritation ............

Male | 28

A broken frenulum occurs when the gentle piece of fabric fastening your tongue or in another part of your body gets pulled or torn apart. You may experience pain or irritation, primarily when moving or moving your tongue or doing activities that affect that area. Occasionally, it may bleed slightly. Don't irritate it further to help it heal and clear it with salty water.

Why there is a bad odor from my mouth

Male | 18

Halitosis, the unple­asant odor from your mouth, can stem from various causes. Poor dental hygie­ne habits, allowing bacterial growth and plaque accumulation, ofte­n lead to this condition. Oral issues like gum dise­ase or dry mouth contribute too. Smoking cigarette­s, consuming odorous foods like garlic, can also result in foul breath. To combat bad bre­ath, practice thorough brushing, flossing daily, using antimicrobial mouthwash regularly. Stay hydrated by drinking ample­ water. Seek profe­ssional dental cleanings periodically for optimal oral he­alth.

I have operated my teeth from a orthodontist at the age of 14 .I had crooked teeth . After investing my 1 year my teeth were aligned. I had braces these year. Now at the age of 24 I can see my teeth are aligning back to their original spaces they are getting crooked again. I want to know about what to do next.

Female | 24

It sounds like your teeth are going back to their original positions again. This is possible to happen in the case that you do not use your retainers according to the plan of your orthodontist. The deletion of the braces, and retainers are useful for keeping teeth in their new position. They are the ones responsible for the extraction of teeth which in turn migrate back. The first and the most important step to stop it would be to rank shifting to acutely wearing the retainer again. Be relaxed, talk to your orthodontist, and ask for instructions.
