Wisdom tooth extraction recovery process

Many people have experienced growing wisdom teeth. Usually wisdom teeth are the last teeth to come out, and their growth rate is very slow. However, not everyone will grow wisdom teeth. Some people may never grow wisdom teeth in their entire lives, while some people may grow wisdom teeth even after they are over 50 years old. Everyone knows that the pain caused by growing wisdom teeth is unbearable for most people. Therefore, many people will directly remove their wisdom teeth.

What is the recovery process like after wisdom tooth extraction?

1. When we first have a tooth pulled out, there will definitely be some pain. A blood clot will generally form about 15 minutes after the tooth is pulled out, and the tooth will no longer bleed. The face will no longer be swollen and painful 3-5 days after the tooth is pulled out, but we must also be careful when eating at this time, otherwise it is easy to fail. Generally, it takes us one month to be able to eat normally.

2. Pay attention to using ice packs: Your face will definitely be swollen for two days after tooth extraction. In order to reduce the swelling in time, we should apply ice packs to our face, so that the swelling will be easier to reduce.

3. Pay attention to your diet: You are not allowed to eat any food within two hours after tooth extraction. You can eat 24 hours after tooth extraction. It is generally recommended to eat some liquid food so as not to irritate the wound and make it easier to heal the wound.

4. Pay attention to oral habits: It is best not to brush your teeth on the day after tooth extraction. If it gets wet, it is easy to get infected. We should wait 24 hours before brushing our teeth. At the same time, we should not do strenuous exercise or take a bath after tooth extraction.

Does wisdom tooth extraction hurt?

Everyone has to go through the period of growing wisdom teeth. On the other hand, this also means that we have grown up, so it is something to be happy about. However, many times we are not happy because wisdom teeth may become inflamed when they grow out. After they grow out, they may also grow in the wrong position, causing squeezing of other teeth, or making the tongue and cheeks uncomfortable, and may even cause other oral problems, so we have to face the choice of extraction.

Many people feel pain when their wisdom teeth grow out, but they have heard that removing wisdom teeth will be even more painful, so they have been hesitating whether to have their wisdom teeth removed.

1. Some people say that having wisdom teeth removed is very painful, while others say that it doesn’t feel anything. That’s because the condition of each person’s wisdom teeth is different.

2. Some people's wisdom teeth have already emerged and can be seen directly, but some people's wisdom teeth have not yet grown out completely.

3. If the wisdom tooth has not fully grown out, you will need to open the flesh and then take it out. It feels like surgery and will be quite painful.

4. For some people, wisdom teeth have already grown out, so extracting wisdom teeth is similar to extracting an ordinary tooth.

5. The difference is the position of the teeth. Because of this, one injection of anesthesia may not be enough when extracting wisdom teeth.

6. Everyone's teeth grow at a different speed. For those that grow slowly, the pain will last longer or be more severe. For those that grow quickly, you can just pull them out early.
