Proper care after oral surgery at AIR Dentalplex
 

Your mouth should be gently rinsed (not vigorously) with warm salt water the day after oral surgery. Add ½ teaspoon salt to one-cup warm water. Be sure to rinse after eating to keep food particles out of the extraction site.

Brush your teeth twice daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush. Brushing your tongue is also advised to eliminate bad breath and the unpleasant taste that often accompanies oral surgery. Floss at least once a day, too.  Follow Dr. Borodaty's instructions carefully after dental surgery.
 

Contact AIR Dentalplex if:

  • Numbness doesn't subside within a few hours;
     
  • You experience nausea or vomiting; or
     
  • You have severe pain, swelling, bleeding, or fever in the wisdom tooth extraction area.
