Impacted molar surgery! The red flags?

It will go in few days

It varies from 3-4 days to a week to 10 days for the pain to completely go. Extreme pain is unusual. May be a sign of dry socket

Please visit your dentist

The recovery time can vary depending on factors such as the complexity of the extraction, your overall health, and adherence to post-operative care instructions. However, here's a general timeline for recovery: 1. Immediate post-operative period (first 24 hours): During this time, it's common to experience pain, swelling, and soreness in the extraction site. Bleeding may also occur, but it should gradually decrease. 2. First few days:Swelling and soreness usually peak within the first 24 to 48 hours after surgery and then gradually improve. Applying ice packs to the affected area during the first 24 hours can help reduce swelling. It's important to stick to a soft or liquid diet and avoid strenuous activities to promote healing. 3. First week: By the end of the first week, most of the swelling and soreness should have subsided, and any remaining discomfort can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain medication. It's essential to continue practicing good oral hygiene and follow any post-operative care instructions provided by your dentist or oral surgeon. 4. Complete healing: Complete healing of the extraction site typically takes several weeks to a few months, depending on the individual's healing process and the complexity of the extraction. During this time, the gums will gradually close, and any residual soreness or discomfort should continue to improve. If you are experiencing excessive pain and swelling, contact your dentist immediately, as these may indicate complications requiring medical attention.
