Do’s and Don’ts Post A TOOTH EXTRACTION, Best tooth extraction in Delhi - Dentally

By following the below guidelines, you can ensure a positive result from your tooth extraction therapy and enjoy a healthy smile.

DO’s
  • Try to get some rest after a tooth extraction. Avoid exercise or heavy activity for at least 24 hours. Keep your head slightly elevated while resting.
  • Allow the clot to form at the extraction site. Bite gently on the gauze for at least an hour to control bleeding. Do not chew on the gauze.
  • Apply an ice pack on the operated side to reduce swelling. Use it every 15 minutes for 2–3 hours on the day of extraction.
  • Start warm saline rinses after 24 hours to keep the extraction area clean.
  • Take medicines exactly as prescribed. If pain or bleeding persists after two days, contact us.
  • Eat soft foods such as yogurt, soups, and rice. Gradually return to solid foods as healing progresses.
  • If sutures have been placed, ensure you return for their removal.
DON’TS
  • Do not smoke for at least 48 hours as it can disturb the clot and cause dry socket.
  • Avoid solid and hot foods while numbness persists.
  • Do not eat hard, hot, or spicy foods for the next 48 hours.
  • Do not rinse, spit forcefully, or use a straw for 24 hours.
  • Do not poke the extraction area with fingers, tongue, or toothpicks.
  • Do not forget to get your sutures removed if they have been placed.
At Dent Ally, you will be given an extraction kit that contains the following:
  • Sterilized Piece of Cotton/Gauze
  • Sterilized Tea Bag

In case you feel bleeding hasn’t stopped after a few hours of the extraction, wet the tea bag and cotton with chilled water and apply it on the extraction area as per the instructions. This will help in controlling the bleeding in a clean and sterilized way.
