Removed a tooth: what to do after removal

All of the following recommendations are based on their personal experience of 15 years as a dental surgeon, as well as academic knowledge. But if something is not clear to you, then you can ask your question in the comments at the bottom of the article.

1. What to do with a gauze swab -

Today a tooth was removed: what to do after removal with a gauze swab in the hole ... A blood-soaked swab is an excellent breeding ground for infection. And the longer you keep it in your mouth, the greater the risk of developing inflammation in the hole. extracted tooth. If you still have on the hole gauze swab then it needs to be removed immediately. It is advisable to do this without jerking and not strictly vertically, but sideways (so as not to pull it out along with the tampon and blood clot from the hole).

An exception may be the situation when the hole is still tingling - in this case, the gauze swab can be held a little longer. But it is best to spit out this old gauze swab soaked in saliva and blood, making a new one out of a sterile bandage, and put it on top of the hole (biting tightly).

10. If there is blood from the hole -

11. If you have high blood pressure -

If you regularly measure the pressure, if it is higher than the working one, drink the appropriate drug. Otherwise, the risk of bleeding or hematoma formation is very high. The first can lead to weakness and dizziness, and the formation of a hematoma is fraught with suppuration and the need to open it.

12. If you have diabetes -

If you have a device for determining blood sugar at home, it is advisable to immediately measure sugar. The stress of removal contributes to the release of adrenaline, the concentration of which largely depends on blood sugar levels. This will help you prevent bad health.

13. Removal of sutures after removal -

After tooth extraction, sutures are usually removed no later than 7-8 days later. However, suture removal may not be required if, as a suture material used, for example, catgut. This material resolves itself in 10 days. When you see that the seams are very loose, you can simply remove them with clean fingers.

14. Treatment of teeth after extraction -

It is advisable to continue treatment after tooth extraction no earlier than 7 days later. If the removal was difficult, then sometimes it may take up to 14 days. This is due to the fact that there is a lot of pathogenic infection in carious teeth, which, when drilling a tooth, can easily get into a blood clot and lead to suppuration.

How should the hole of the extracted tooth look like normally?

As you will see below, the blood clot after tooth extraction is initially intense burgundy color. Gradually, the surface of the clot becomes whitish / yellowish (this is the norm, because fibrin effusion occurs). Normally, a blood clot the next day should already be dense. If the clot becomes loose, this means its decay, and you should familiarize yourself with it in order to see a doctor in time.

What does the gum look like after tooth extraction (normal) -

Nobody is immune from unpleasant consequences tooth extraction, it happened in childhood or in adulthood. Such negative phenomena may appear as:

• inflammation of soft tissues in the area of ​​amputation as a result of infection;
• long-lasting bleeding;
• suppuration;
• redness due to swelling of the gums at the site of tooth extraction.

In order not to experience such inconvenience after a visit to the dentist-surgeon, you need to know what to do after the tooth is removed to reduce the number negative consequences and discomfort, how to care for the oral cavity after the operation. The article provides advice on this topic for various situations.

• touch the amputation site with fingers, tongue, objects;
• visit a bath, sauna, bathe in a hot bath;
• have a heavy physical load;
• endure stress, be very nervous;
• clean the oral cavity on the side of the extracted tooth;
• strongly rinse the area of ​​​​operation, you can remove a blood clot that thromboses the hole;
• if the gum at the site of tooth extraction was sewn up, then before the removal or resorption of the sutures, it is not necessary to open your mouth much, you need to chew carefully so that the sutures do not separate.

Preparations after tooth extraction

If the doctor has not prescribed antibiotics, antimicrobial, painkillers or anti-inflammatory drugs, then self-medication is unacceptable. Uncontrolled medication after tooth extraction can lead to various complications and side effects.

The dentist usually prescribes antibiotics in the following cases:

• complicated tooth extraction;
• complex treatment in the area of ​​removal;
• the appearance of pus, infection of the hole, severe inflammation;
• concomitant diseases in the mouth - stomatitis, candidiasis and others;
• complications due to comorbidities, weak immunity of the patient.

These antibiotics are usually metronidazole or lincomycin capsules orally for 5 days.

Attention! Antibiotics may be prescribed in the form of injections if the inflammation and suppuration of the removal area is significant.

The doctor prescribes an anesthetic if the removal was difficult and lengthy or an inflammatory process has already developed. It is allowed to take Nurofen on your own, even if the effect of the anesthetic has not yet ended. Ketanov, as a strong pain reliever, can be taken only on the recommendation of a doctor.

If the indication for tooth extraction was an inflammatory process, or the operation was difficult, then the doctor prescribes anti-inflammatory drugs. This will help prevent infection and speed up the healing process.

Folk remedies in the form of a heating pad or ice directly on the hole after tooth extraction can cause bleeding or serious inflammation of this area, even suppuration.

Patients with diabetes need to control their blood sugar levels after tooth extraction. This is stress for the body, provoking the release of adrenaline and the deterioration of the diabetic condition.

Oral hygiene

Rinsing and brushing your teeth can only be done the next morning after the amputation of the tooth. The toothbrush should be soft so as not to injure the gums in the area to be removed. Brush your teeth carefully, avoiding strong pressure in this area and getting the bristles into the hole. Since the dentist disinfects the wound after removal, use rinses, dental floss and irrigators the first time there is no need.

If there discomfort, and you can’t rinse in the first 2 days, then you can do this:

• baths and applications herbal decoctions, rinse aid from the pharmacy or soda solution are performed by typing them into the mouth;
• you just need to keep the liquid in your mouth for about 3 minutes, without rolling;
• do not eat or drink after such a bath, preferably a couple of hours.

Hygiene care after tooth extraction is a must. good hygiene in the oral cavity contributes better healing, and decoctions of herbs allow you to get rid of pathogenic bacteria that accumulate at the site of tooth extraction.

This method can be used in case of incipient inflammation, the appearance of a hematoma or small discharge blood from the wound.

Attention! Chlorhexidine or furatsilin in the form of applications are effective in case of abscess rupture, suppuration or infection of the wound. They have an antiseptic effect.

Rinsing is necessary for exacerbation after tooth extraction chronic diseases oral cavity (stomatitis, periodontitis, gingivitis).

Pathology and norm after surgical procedure

Before doing something after the tooth is removed, it is first necessary to find out whether the phenomenon is normal or pathological, whether a complication develops.

Important! Discomfort and discomfort in the area of ​​removal do not give sufficient reason to immediately take medications and folk remedies. This can weaken the body's natural defenses.

You need to know that:

1. After will pass the action anesthesia, the wound from removal will ache and swell. Swelling is removed by applying a cold object to the cheek in the area of ​​pain.
2. Even on the third day, bruises and hematomas may appear, especially in cases complex operation. They go away on their own after a few days.
3. Pain is relieved by taking painkillers, applying cold to the area, or they go away on their own in a few days without intervention.
4. Slight bleeding from the hole, blood in the saliva immediately after removal and within 2-3 hours after the procedure - normal phenomena. If the pressure has increased, alcohol has been drunk or has been exercise stress, then it can bleed longer, stronger.
5. Dry lips and corners of the mouth, their cracking is possible after applying various dental preparations and anesthesia. You can lubricate them with balm, cream, sea ​​buckthorn oil. There is a manifestation and exacerbation of herpes against the background of tooth extraction.
6. Sore throat, chills, fever body, headache, lethargy - normal, quickly passing phenomena after a complex operation.
7. If it is not possible to open the mouth wide within a few days after the amputation of the tooth, then this is understandable. There is a slight swelling and pain, and possibly stitches, which is why it is difficult. Gradually it will pass.

After the tooth is removed, the dentist may place stitches on the area of ​​the operation. They are removed 7-8 days after removal. However, the removal of sutures may not be required if catgut is used as a suture material - this material resolves itself.

Having considered what are the normal manifestations of the consequences of tooth extraction, it must be said about cases of complications, with the appearance of signs of which you should immediately seek medical help.

1. dragging on for days pain syndrome, which is not reduced or removed with the help of pain medications.
2. The blood does not stop for a day or more, has a scarlet color.
3. High temperature that does not decrease for more than 24 hours.
4. Puffiness has spread to the cheek, there is no way to eat, talk, oral hygiene is completely impossible.
5. Necrosis of the gums at the site of removal, whitish plaque, strong pus from the hole.
6. Unpleasant smell of decay oral cavity from the site of tooth extraction.
7. Numbness in the area of ​​tooth extraction that does not go away for several days, taste and temperature receptors do not respond to stimuli properly.
8. Appeared the mobility of adjacent teeth.
9. The seams on the gums diverge.

All these cases cannot be ignored, self-treatment is prohibited, urgent help doctor. Especially if the extraction of the tooth was difficult. Simple situations during the usual extraction of a tooth, as a rule, do not require such an intervention.

After the extraction of a tooth of any complexity, the patient must adhere to the recommendations of the doctor.

What should a patient do after a tooth has been removed? What procedures are recommended without fail The dental surgeon will tell you after the procedure. Below are systematic recommendations for the care of the socket (dental alveolus) in postoperative period which must be adhered to in order to avoid the development of complications.

Swelling, slight swelling of the cheek in the projection of the place where the tooth was removed is an inevitable phenomenon. Like the lungs pain in the tooth socket, such consequences after tooth extraction are considered the norm, disappear in 24-48 hours.

Rarely there is an increase in temperature up to 38 in evening time and at night. This is also a standard reaction of the body, which does not indicate the beginning of the inflammatory process.

What to do after tooth extraction

When can you eat?

The first 5 days of the menu is better to make up soft, mild dishes. Pureed soups, mashed potatoes, cereals, casseroles without hot spices are suitable. Useful fortified dairy dishes, plant food. Everything should be served warm, without excessive salt and especially sugar. The opinion that ice cream reduces pain and speeds up wound healing is fundamentally wrong. In general, after tooth extraction, it is better to exclude sweets completely.

From hygiene procedures on the first day, only antiseptic baths with furacilin, chlorhexidine 0.05% or other antiseptic are carried out. The next day after the extraction, the teeth are already brushed soft brush, but very carefully, without touching the tooth socket with a thrombus. Rinse the brush after cleaning in an antiseptic solution and store under sterile conditions.

You can only eat mashed dishes: cereals, soups, mashed potatoes.

What to do at home

TO folk methods, which have a beneficial effect on wound healing after tooth extraction, include baths with decoction oak bark, elecampane, sage, St. John's wort, chamomile, calamus root, sweet clover and calendula.

On the second or third day, warm baths with sea salt (half a teaspoon per 250-300 ml of water) and a small amount of soda (0.25 teaspoon per 250-300 ml of water) are useful.

What not to do after tooth extraction

Tooth extraction refers to surgical interventions, with a postoperative period of up to 5-7 days. For this time, there are also a number of things that you should not do or, if possible, try to avoid them as much as possible.

First of all, this concerns a repeated visit to the dentist - if the bleeding occurs again, the temperature lasts for more than two days and grows, the pain does not decrease or there is aching throbbing pain - you should definitely go to the doctor again. When a tooth is pulled out, a blood clot appears in its hole, which eventually resolves and new healthy tissue appears. However, due to improper care it may turn out that he was pulled out prematurely, as a result, only a dentist can help fix the problem.

• Take anticoagulants (blood thinners);
• Take hot baths, visit a bath or sauna, it is better to wash under warm shower. Sudden changes in temperature can cause spasm or expansion of the lumen of the vessels, which will lead to the resumption of pain and bleeding;
• Rinse your mouth;
• Drinking alcohol;
• smoking;
• Spit. Active mechanical movements in the oral cavity displace the thrombus;
• Treat other teeth less than 5-7 days after extraction. Carious teeth are a breeding ground for all kinds of bacteria that, when they get on the formed clot, cause its infection;
• Engage in heavy physical work lift weights, bend over. excessive physical activity leads to an increase blood pressure, and bleeding may start again;
• Chew food on the side of the extracted tooth.
• Swallow blood. Since spitting is undesirable, an alternative solution to the problem of bleeding is to repack the socket or use a hemostatic sponge.

Limitations also apply to facial movements, in the presence of seams, the mouth should not be opened too wide, otherwise the seams will disperse.

Additional Information

With uncomplicated tooth extraction, analgesic drugs will not be needed at all, but if even the slightest toothache poorly tolerated, it is better to prevent its occurrence. To do this, ask your doctor about the duration of anesthesia. Take an analgesic 20-30 minutes before the anesthesia wears off.

If the extraction of the tooth was difficult: the bone was drilled around the tooth that was pulled out, abscesses were opened, the gum tissue affected by the infection was cut out, sutures were applied, or several teeth were pulled out at the same time, you need to be prepared for the fact that at the end of the anesthesia, the discomfort will be quite intense. In this case, painkillers of ketanes or based on nimesulide (nise, nimesil, nimic) are suitable. They deal quickly and efficiently with severe pain and also have an anti-inflammatory effect.

In the presence of arterial hypertension, diabetes, hemophilia, conditions after a recent acute respiratory disease, influenza, low level platelets in the blood menopause, tendency to spontaneous nosebleeds, the patient must tell the doctor about it. Then the scheme of surgical intervention and care for the hole in the postoperative period will be selected individually.

Removal of wisdom teeth

After the removal of a wisdom tooth, the recommendations regarding what to do and what not to do remain the same.

The postoperative period increases to two weeks, during which it can:

• feel the presence foreign body in the hole is medications, accelerating the healing of the wound and preventing its infection or stitches;
• rise in temperature in the evening and at night;
• occur periodically It's a dull pain at the site of removal, projecting into the ear or cheekbones (especially after eating or physical exertion).

To minimize the development of pathologies, after tooth extraction, in addition to antiseptic baths, it is necessary to take antibiotics prescribed by the dentist (lincomycin, flemoxin, tsifran), anti-inflammatory drugs (buran-400, rotokan), make compresses and applications with drugs that inhibit the reproduction and growth of bacteria . Gently rinse your mouth before going to bed and after eating. If after 12-14 days after the doctor pulled out the tooth, the discomfort did not go away, visit the dentist again.

Caring for a hole during tooth extraction in pregnant women

If a woman pulled out a tooth while in position, a list of analgesics and antiseptics allowed to receive is significantly reduced. Is it worth using dosage forms only the doctor can decide.

In the absence of a development threat serious complications baths, compresses and applications are prescribed using herbal infusions of calamus root, oak bark, sage, St. John's wort and sea ​​salt. In the first hours after removal, cold compresses can be applied.

Urgent return visit to the dentist

With an increase in temperature above 38 degrees, which does not last longer than 24 hours, an increase in swelling, the appearance of bad smell and taste in the mouth, the resumption of bleeding that does not stop before 12 hours, you should immediately consult a doctor.

Also, after tooth extraction, a second consultation is indicated if:

• divergence of seams is visually detected;
• pain in the hole does not subside for more than three days and increases (it is important to pay attention if the pain has taken on the character of a pulsating one, this indicates the development of an inflammatory process);
• neighboring teeth became mobile;
• there was numbness of the tongue, cheeks, mucous lips;
• submandibular lymph nodes became painful.

It is important to understand that improper or inadequate care of the hole after tooth extraction, ignoring a second consultation with a dentist with alarming symptoms will result in further treatment already in a hospital, so you need to do everything that he advises.

Tooth extraction is quite common in both children and adults. modern medicine allows the procedure to be carried out as painlessly and quickly as possible without consequences for the patient. But do not forget that such surgical intervention occurs as a mini-operation, because the dental surgeon performs the excision of the gums, and sometimes affects the bone tissue and even sutures.

If the removal turned out to be simple, then after the operation the patient feels only a slight aching pain, which quickly passes. If you observe oral hygiene, do not chew on the inflamed side and treat the hole with antiseptics, then healing will occur naturally and fast.

The patient often notes that after the removal of a tooth, the gums aches and hurts. But what if the pain in the gums does not go away for more than a week and is accompanied by suppuration and even hyperthermia? In this case, we can talk about the introduction of infection, pathological processes and complications that should be treated promptly.

As we have already established, the intensity and duration of pain, redness, swelling of the area depends on the complexity of the manipulations performed.

In fact, the body responds to any tissue dissection with pain - this is a normal neurological reaction, whether it is a cut on the hand, ankle or gums. The more actions were performed during the amputation of the tooth, the higher the chance of prolonged and pronounced pain.

Wisdom tooth extraction

Let's see when a dentist resorts to a complex operation to remove a tooth:

• the roots of the tooth have an ornate unnatural shape;
• the crown was damaged to the very root, which does not allow the doctor to catch on with the usual tools and methods;
• fragile and thin bone a tooth that breaks into fragments at the slightest use of dental appliances;
• impacted tooth, as well as the removal of the third molar.

In these cases, the dental surgeon performs complex manipulations. To begin with, the tissue above the tooth is excised and its maximum separation from the bone of the tooth is performed. Next, the tooth is carefully sawn with a drill to the required volume and shape, and it is amputated.

After the tooth has been pulled out and all the fragments have been removed, the resulting hole is carefully treated with antiseptics and a disinfecting compress is applied.

As you can see, after such a complex surgical intervention pain are the norm rather than the exception. Also normal reaction The body can be considered discomfort when swallowing, soreness when opening the mouth and chewing. When removing the third molar, cheek swelling is also considered a common reaction, which leads to slight facial asymmetry.

We have established why the gum hurts after tooth extraction, but how long can the pain syndrome be considered the norm?

The first unpleasant sensations appear after the termination of the action. local anesthesia. A day later, the patient observes swelling of the tissues around the tooth: slight swelling and redness. Painful sensations completely disappear by the end of the week with a simultaneous decrease in swelling, which indicates recovery. If the discomfort only increases, and the swelling spreads from the gums to the cheek and jaw as a whole, we can talk about inflammatory processes.

What to do in this case?

First of all, you must understand that you must not humbly endure sharp pains, so take strong painkillers (Nurofen, Ketanov), after consulting with your doctor.

You should also start making baths and compresses with chlorhexidine, a slightly pink solution of manganese, with a solution of soda and salt.

If there are anti-allergic drugs at home like Suprastin or Tagevil, then you can take 1 tablet at night or do intramuscular injection in the approved dosage. Similar medicinal products have a decongestant effect, prolong the effect of painkillers, allow you to fall asleep, despite the sharp pain.

Tooth hurts after extraction: development of alveolitis

Why does a tooth hurt after extraction and after sterile manipulations in the mouth can such inflammation occur?

Inflammation of the gum socket

Usually, after the amputation of the tooth, the hole is blocked by a blood clot, which is a normal step in the healing process. Sometimes the clot may be yellowish due to the release of fibrin. But if the patient noticed the suppuration of the area and the release of fluid, then we should talk about inflammation of the gingival socket called "alveolitis".

Gradually, the protective clot loosens and soaks due to the release of pus, an unpleasant and Strong smell from the mouth, pain in the area and swelling become stronger. Outwardly, the hole looks like a wound filled with dead cells, food debris and fluid mixed with pus.

Suppuration and swelling of the area is evidence of a doctor's mistake or the patient's irresponsibility.

The patient, for example, may be too intensive in oral hygiene after tooth extraction, which leads to the destruction of the protective clot. Or not at all basic hygiene, which leads to the multiplication of microbes in food debris.

Sometimes the disease contributes to a weak immune system and recently past illnesses, as well as the presence in the oral cavity of carious holes, bleeding and inflamed gums.

The guilt of the doctor is established, if an element of the root remains in the hole, a fragment of dental tissue. Also, an inexperienced young doctor can leave a cyst containing pathogenic microflora in the remote area, which will cause suppuration of the wound and tissue necrosis.

The fault of the dentist is excluded if the amputation was performed against the background of other inflammatory processes or weak immunity, especially if he took care of the necessary antiseptic and disinfecting procedures: he put an anti-inflammatory drug or a compress in the well, prescribed antibiotics and rinsing procedures.

How much will it hurt if a tooth is pulled out and alveolitis develops?

If the gum hurts after removing the itching, you should immediately consult a doctor

The painful syndrome will not go away, as will suppuration, swelling of the area, so you should immediately consult a doctor! Antibiotics, rinses, compresses and creams at home will not give results, but can aggravate the process and lead to bone necrosis.

At the appointment, the dentist will clean the hole from pus and necrotic tissue. Then it will rely on an active disinfectant and anti-inflammatory medicine. All manipulations are carried out under local anesthesia. After the wound has been closed, a specialist can prescribe an appropriate antibiotic.

Healing after alveolitis can be quite long - 2-3 weeks.

Pain due to hematoma

What to do if a tooth is pulled out, the gum is swollen, sore and the following symptoms are observed:

All of the above indicates the appearance of a hematoma and suppurative processes inside it. Do not try to find blue tissue, it may take a couple of days to appear.

Why can a hematoma appear?

1. As a result of anesthesia, the needle of the syringe fell into a vessel or capillary. As a rule, to prevent the occurrence of a hematoma, the dentist asks the patient to massage the puncture site with an alcohol swab.
2. Presence of hypertension. Everyone knows the fact that high pressure increases the chance of hematomas.
3. Diabetes. In this disease, the capillaries have increased fragility, so the appearance of hematomas during anesthesia is considered a normal process.

What to do if the gum hurts and it is impossible to perform hygienic and preventive manipulations for the treatment of a hematoma due to strong sensations? And self-medication is not worth it! It is strictly forbidden to use heating pads, apply ice, rinse your mouth with aggressive solutions.

With the illiterate and untimely treatment hematoma can develop into phlegmon or abscess with purulent inflammation which may require external incisions to be removed.

Make an appointment with a doctor who will cut the gum, perform an outflow of purulent masses, thoroughly wash the hole with antiseptic and healing solutions, and place a special drainage. He will also prescribe medical baths, prescribe appropriate antibiotics and write a referral for a re-examination in a week.

Unfortunately, it is not always possible to save and then it has to be removed. The procedure for removing a tooth should be taken seriously. By paying due attention to gum care during the recovery period, you will avoid many problems associated with both wound healing and the likelihood of infection. if you removed a tooth what to do?

What to do in the first days after removal?

The main goal after the operation is to prevent strong impact on the affected area, so rinsing your mouth, eating and drinking in the first hours after removal is strictly prohibited. But after a day, you can do special oral baths in order to speed up the healing process and relieve unpleasant and painful sensations. For the procedure, you will need 1 teaspoon of sea salt and 1 glass of lightly warm water. Dissolve the salt thoroughly and hold the solution in your mouth. But do not forget that it is important to keep the fresh hole intact and not damage it. Therefore, do not rinse your mouth - just hold the water and spit it out after a few minutes. It is necessary to carry out the procedure after each meal (even a small snack) and before going to bed.

Further, your actions directly depend on the condition of the hole or gum. As soon as you notice a whitish cloudy coating (this usually happens a few days after removal), perform an oral bath with any antiseptic solution. For these purposes, a drug such as chlorophyllipt is perfect. Observe the proportion of 10 drops per 100 ml of warm water.

Also, in the first days after the procedure, avoid taking any blood-thinning drugs (such as aspirin), as they can slow down the healing process and cause bleeding from a fresh wound.

• Avoid hot food, alcohol, cigarettes and carbonated drinks in the first days after surgery. All of the above can damage the blood clot formed at the site of removal, which will greatly slow down the treatment process and increase the likelihood of infection.
• In the first days after the procedure, refrain from playing sports and sudden movements. Remember that your body has recently undergone severe stress and deserve some rest.
• Brushing your teeth is allowed already on the first day after extraction. But be careful! Use toothbrush with the softest and most delicate bristles and do not touch the area where the tooth was removed.
• In the first 2 weeks after removal, do not go to the bath or sauna and do not sunbathe in the solarium. This increases blood circulation throughout the body and can cause bleeding.
• For fast withdrawal aching pain, use cold. Fill a regular glove with water and place it in the freezer. Then wrap it in a paper or cloth towel and press it against your cheek. Soon you will feel that the pain gradually subsides. But do not use the cold for more than 15 minutes, try to alternate periods of cooling and rest. It is best to take care of the preparation of ice in advance so that you can quickly administer pain relief when you arrive home after the procedure.
• If the aching pain does not subside a few days after the removal, be sure to consult your dentist. Only he can determine what the problem is. A complication known as dry socket may occur. This means that the blood clot at the site of removal was not formed or was seriously damaged, as a result of which the wound does not heal.
• Use any healing agents and herbal infusions only after the wound has completely healed. Your doctor will inform you about this during the follow-up examination.
