Tooth extraction
How much pain one Feels during teeth extraction specially with the Wisdom Teeth... I am thinking of getting my Wisdom teeth extraction due to its bad alignment... What could be the complications? I m scared a little..
Hi.. Hopefully you might have got your wisdom tooth assessed by dentist with help of xray.If not plz do so. During extraction you won't feel pain as tooth will b anesthetized, but you will feel pressure that's it. After surgery mouth opening will reduce and there will b slight swelling for few days, which is normal.You will need rest for few days so plan your schedule accordingly. Follow all instructions given by your operating dentist and you would b compelety fine.Text me if you have further queries.
Next Steps
Visit oral and maxillofacial surgeon
Health Tips
Don't skip medicines given dentist after surgery, follow soft diet and maintain oral hygiene.Dont apply hot packs(strictly prohibited)
