How to heal faster after a tooth extraction

[@SpiritualMind93]

I had a tooth extraction yesterday. I made sure I ate well before the appointment. Then after the treatment, I did not do anything for 4-5 hours. Later I started drinking water in a glass sip by sip slowly. And limited conversations for 10 hours. I had to keep changing gauze a couple of times to make the bleeding stop though. But here I am with no pain, did not take any pain killers. Drinking lot of water. Ate mashed avocado and sweet potato. Been 22 hours now. Feeling better. Those who are afraid don’t worry, just go for it. Don’t keep delaying your treatments due to fear like I did. If I can, YOU can!!!

Me To morrow 18-01-2024 13:00 I will lose my last 6 tooth, and they make for me fake tooth up and down like old people, thanks for the advice I will buy potatoes and avocado morning before I go to dentist sorry for broken English

It felt uncomfortable and the pressure was a bit weird

[@Rina-tn5ys]

Just had mines Monday and I’m over it😢

[@Joshtheweatherman]

Agreed. It did not hurt me one bit to have it removed. It’s a little sore now after a few hours, but it’s not unbearable by any means. It was a lot more painful when the tooth was in there.

[@tiffanysmith986]

I did it this morning, just here looking for tips for healing process. Thanks so much

[@leahchalmers2211]

Sitting here watching this video after I had my tooth extracted feels much better tho on my way to healing

Same girl. Literally in California laying in hotel bed after having 4 extractions too

Recently had a tooth extracted and this information was very helpful. My dentist did explain post-extraction methods to me, but it was helpful to have this information to refer to.

[@MarthaMcCrum]

Agreed

[@vilvavia5467]

I love this video i had a tooth extraction its been 1 week no more blood it healed but my gums still feel swelling tenderness . After watching video it helped me understand it takes 2 weeks to heal completely made me feel much better knowing this is normal

I just have a back molar removed no pain but that pressure and wrenching was the most intense thing and I will need do that again with just a local

[@VikingLion]

Just had mine removed today they had to hit me with Anthestics several times before attempting to twist and move it. The twist and moving is indeed intense but lord the alleviation of it uggh I had a tear roll down my cheek

[@John-ww2bf]

Why on earth is a dentist saying to brush your teeth after an extraction no rinse with saltwater and don’t brush your teeth that day simple

[@sissysims9028]

She said before and then the day after you can brush and floss your other teeth like normal, not the extraction site tho.

[@kristycrow9586]

I just had all my teeth pulled 3 1/2 weeks ago. Most of my gums still have gaping holes. I am a slow healer, looking for a way to get them to heal fast. This did not help at all. They won't do impressions yet because of the slow healing process. I am getting depressed and need this to heal.

[@dag23_subbers]

Nice explanation! Salt rinse tip was nice. Thanks Doctor!

[@karinacastillo9279]

Thank you so much this was so helpful 🙏🏼👍🏼

[@jxjxjj2544]

Years ago I had my 4 front teeth removed. And when I got home I ate chips but it healed I had no problems. Now my tooth has chipped off and I'm feeling pain but I might have an infection idk but I might get antibiotics and after I'm done with them I'll get it pulled

[@seanmitchell2610]

How do I clean after getting 13 extractions at once? I can't put the brush in my mouth without touching an extraction site.

I had my wisdom tooth extracted. How long will the hole closed ? Anybody with experience please share and answer. Thanks

[@thynguyen5303]

they keep saying not to rinse within 24hrs but people I gotta eat to take the meds, and when I eat I need to get the food out of the hole no? How the hell is noone talking about this part? Can I or do I rinse after I eat within 24h to keep it clean????

[@eg2102]

I had this same problem. I used salt water to get rid of the food but that caused dry socket. Eventually I put gauze over that area but so hard to eat

[@thynguyen5303]

@@eg2102 no dont do it with salt water, someone told me it slowers the healing, just use plain cold water, shake your head, don’t rinse don’t spit, your mouth will be fine without being brushed for 3 days so don’t worry, I know cuz I recovered with 0 pain or dry socket

[@hasatubah916]

I extracted mine today and was told to remove the wool on the extraction after 1 hour and then I should use Luke warm water and salt to rinse after every few minutes. From the comments I am seeing I hope my doctor was right cus am now scared. And also after eating I should rinse it well so the food don't get stuck in the wound. I pray for a safe recovery because I don't wish to go back for another removal. It hurts

[@michellesweightlossjourney6599]

I used baking soda dissolved in warm water as an oral rinse and I swear by it. I think it's better than salt alone.

[@susankarma173]

Think I will try this. I had a root canal done in April well the tooth broke it alway hurt so I had my bad broken tooth extracted yesterday. Thanks for the tip.

[@pluviophile1988]

2 weeks of pain and healing? i dont think so...

[@damienanderson1685]

I have a question,, i had surgery and had all of my teeth removed 4 days ago, apart from all the stitches i feel fine except where my lower jaw joins gets really sore like im straining it, is this normal

[@ElectricTeeth]

It is best to direct this question to your dental processional. It probably is given the process you have had completed. Hopefully the pain has subsided now and you are feeling better.

[@KapilSharma71180]

My doctor did a wrong type of filling causing me sharp pain while eating few hard things....i aruged with with a lot after too many follow up of problems now i am help less....before beating him hard any hope or something can be done 😡😡😡😡😡.

[@ElectricTeeth]

Perhaps you need to see a different dentist for a 2nd opinion and a new filling?

[@sacheth2517]

Hi, my father had an extraction almost a year ago and the site of extraction didn't heal yet. What might be the reason?

[@ElectricTeeth]

Not sure without more information. Best to speak to the dentist who carried out the extraction and is aware of your fathers medical history.

[@usherr7]

That sounds like something that would happen to someone who is diabetic, but a year is too long.

I got a tooth pulled. Was using cotton over pulled tooth. I missed a small round ball piece deep inside hole for awhile. Black and foul smelling.

Can I use hydrogen peroxide? mouth rinse? cotton ball soaked in colloidal silver?

[@stuartsoulek8161]

Can you use Listerine as a way to help clean the extraction site?

[@ElectricTeeth]

24 hours after the extraction, yes potentially. Rinsing can dislodge clots/impact healing in the first 24 hours. You're probably better off waiting until it's healed properly to use mouthwash though.

[@-xyz-012]

Better off swishing with warm water and salt. Listerine is a nasty product.
