Managing Discomfort After Dental Extraction: Tips & Tricks
How to manage discomfort during the healing process after dental extraction?
Dentist
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.

38 year old MALE, I am. Facing unhealthy tongue since last 6month. Purple patches on tongue, whitish layer also in morning. A slight overgrowth observed at right end edge. No medicine working, no relief from last 6 month.
Male | 38
Oral lichen planus might often show up as purple and white spots on the surface of the tongue that may or may not include a covering. It might not be infectious, however, it might be very annoying. Due to immune system dysfunction or stress can be a contributing circumstance. Eliminate spicy foods or abrasive brushing to relieve the suffering. Gargling with the help of salt can also be a relief. If you do not experience any alleviation, consult a dentist for a proper check-up and cure.

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.

Tongue pain results from infections, injuries, or certain foods. To ease the discomfort, avoid spicy or acidic foods. Drink plenty of water. Gently rinse your mouth with salt water to soothe the area. If the pain persists, consult a dentist.

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.

Burning sensation in the stomach along with pain could be due to acid reflux, gastritis, or an ulcer. It’s important to avoid spicy or oily food that can worsen these symptoms. Please visit a gastroenterologist for a detailed examination and the right treatment.

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.

Hello Doctor, While eating i accidentally bite my inner cheek and a sore/wound has appeared on the bite site which is causing me an extreme pain and uneasiness, now i cant chew properly due to it,the exact location is on the right lower side adjacent to wisdom teeth . Furthermore my inner cheek are touching or rubbing against the last lower teeth which is also causing a mark on my cheek. Kindly suggest me any appropriate remedy or medication for the above issue. Thanks
Male | 41
It seems you accidentally bit the inside of your mouth, causing a sore near your wisdom teeth. This can make chewing painful, and your cheek rubbing against the teeth may worsen the irritation. To help, rinse with warm salt water to keep the area clean and reduce swelling. Over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen can also ease the discomfort. Avoid spicy or acidic foods that can irritate the sore, and chew slowly to prevent further injury. If the pain persists or you notice signs of infection, such as increased swelling, redness, or pus, see a dentist promptly.
