What should I do if there is a hole after the tooth is pulled out?

If our teeth become loose, or if wisdom teeth or cavities grow inside them, doctors will recommend that we take measures to extract the teeth directly. Because of the effect of anesthetic during tooth extraction, the patient will not feel much pain, but after the anesthetic wears off, the toothache can really cost a person his life. After having a tooth extracted, not only will it hurt, but there will also be a cavity. What should you do about this cavity?

Some time ago, because one of my large teeth was so badly decayed, I had to go to the hospital to have it extracted. I believe that many people have had the same experience as me, the pain after tooth extraction, so we all hope that the tooth cavity will heal quickly. In this way, whether it is dentures or implants, it will be very beneficial to our overall health. I share my little experience and hope to help more people, so that you can get your teeth healed as soon as possible like me.

Tools/Materials:

Clear water, anti-inflammatory drugs, pork rib soup, etc.

Optimistic attitude, healthy steps

There is one thing I must say first, that is, if we have any discomfort in our teeth, we must see a doctor, because dental problems will not only affect our daily diet but can also be serious enough to affect the health of the entire body.

Before having a tooth extracted, it is best to eat something first, because you can only eat liquid food within 24 hours after the extraction, which may be very painful for foodies. There is no need to say more about other conditions that are not suitable for tooth extraction, such as high blood pressure, heart disease, etc. It is best for girls to do it about 10 days after the menstrual period.

After the tooth is extracted, the doctor will take a look at the situation. If it is nothing serious, he will let you go back. You can consult the doctor to take some antibiotics. Here are the highlights

After returning home, do not spit, because the blood clot in the mouth will be spit out with the saliva, which is very unfavorable for the healing of the tooth cavity wound. The doctor advised me to swallow it.

I had a tooth pulled in the afternoon, and it was bleeding all the time, so after I came back I could only drink milk to fill my stomach for dinner. But it’s not good at night. Usually after having a tooth extracted, you may have a fever or something at night. I was fine at the time. I just felt a little burning in the hole where the tooth was extracted, so I applied ice to it and it felt better immediately. But when I was sleeping at night, I started bleeding and having a fever again. Cold compresses didn't help, so I drank some room temperature water to dilute the bloody taste in my mouth. At this time, don't be nervous. It will get better slowly. Once you fall asleep, everything will be fine.

The next morning, when I looked in the mirror, I saw some bleeding, but don't be nervous, bleeding within 24 hours is normal. So, you can stop eating and just drink some milk. If you are really hungry, drink some white porridge (it has to be cooled down, never drink anything hot). After 24 hours, or after the bleeding stops, you can eat something. Make sure it is light, easy to chew, swallow and digest. Do not chew food in your mouth for too long, and do not eat for too long, as both of these may cause bleeding again.

It should be much better the next night. Just follow the previous steps. If you have recovered well, you can eat.

By the way, if you want to brush your teeth, be sure not to use raw water, use purified water or cold boiled water, because there are bacteria in raw water, so it is best not to use it to prevent infection.

If the tooth cavity doesn't hurt anymore, you can drink some simple pork rib soup, wolfberry pork rib soup, or pork rib and corn soup, but it must be light. You can eat some pork ribs with the other side of your teeth, but don't chew the bones, because the fragile tooth cavity can't stand the tossing. Rice is also okay. On the third day, I ate a well-cooked chicken leg, a bowl of pork rib soup, and three pieces of green vegetables. Maybe it took me a little too long to eat, so my teeth hurt a little after I finished.

After that, I had to eat on time every day, but the food must be light. Drinking some pork rib soup every day can help the wound recover. After a week, it was almost recovered and I could chew gently with the side where the tooth was extracted. The recovery is good now. Friends who have the same troubles as me can refer to it, but the specific steps still depend on personal constitution. I wish you a speedy recovery.
