What food do you eat after tooth extraction?

1. It takes about half an hour to 45 minutes to spit out the gauze or cotton ball on the wound after tooth extraction. When biting gauze, if there is saliva, please swallow it normally. If the gauze still oozes slightly after being taken out, spare gauze 1 hour is needed. If it still fails, please contact your doctor again. It is normal to have a small amount of blood in saliva within 24 hours. If there is slight bloodshot saliva, there is no need to panic, but if bloodshot saliva continues to appear, please contact your doctor.

2. Rest in a semi-recumbent position after tooth extraction. Don't lie on your back. You can't take a hot bath immediately to avoid bleeding from the wound.

You can't eat until 2 hours after tooth extraction. You can eat liquid or semi-liquid food instead of hard and overheated food. It must be noted that soft food should be brewed after 2 hours; Food should not be overheated, avoid chewing with the tooth extraction side. Otherwise, if we don't pay attention to the above points before the blood clot is completely organized, it will also lead to blood clot destruction and bleeding.

4. Don't do strenuous exercise or heavy physical labor on the day of tooth extraction, and don't drink alcohol, play musical instruments, suck wounds or gargle.

5. After the anesthetic disappears, the tooth extraction wound is slightly painful and generally does not need to take medicine. If you have fever, severe pain, swelling or bleeding, you should see a doctor in time.

6. Except for the third molar and supernumerary teeth, most adults need to install dentures after tooth extraction, and they can go to the hospital or dental clinic for installation about 2 months after tooth extraction.

7. gauze occlusion is very important after tooth extraction. After tooth extraction, the tooth extraction wound is filled with fresh blood, and after about 15 minutes, a blood clot will form to seal the wound. Therefore, the correct gauze bite time is 30 minutes. Neither too early nor too late. In advance, blood clots will not form and bleeding will not stop; After the delay, the blood clot coagulates with the gauze, and when the gauze is taken out, it is taken out together and bleeds again. At the same time, the emphasis is on "taking out" rather than "spitting out" gauze. The latter often destroys blood clots because of excessive force.
