Hi,
Thanks for the query,
As you had a gum surgery, so following precautions you should take-
No vigorous rinsing, drinking through a straw, or spitting for 3 days so the blood clot will not be disturbed.
Slight bleeding is normal for several hours following surgery. If persistent bleeding occurs place a wet teabag on the involved area and apply direct pressure for 15-20 minutes.
Do not eat by the surgical area for 1 week.Avoid acidic and crunchy foods. Drink plenty of fluids.
Do not use tobacco or drink alcohol as these will delay healing.
After 24 hours of surgery, start warm saline rinses 3 times a day.
After one week, carefully brush the teeth while avoiding the gums in the area of surgery. The gums and lower parts of the teeth should be cleaned with a dampened piece of cotton.
After gum surgery, sensitivity of teeth develops so you can use
sensodyne tooth paste.
If a periodontal dressing is placed then it should remain in place for 1 week.
Take your prescribed medication.
This will not pose any problem with your extraction of wisdom tooth.
take care.
