DO NOT USE STRAWS, NO SMOKING, NO SPITTING, NO SUCKING!.!.!.!.!. you want a blood clot to form, if it doesn't you can get a dry socket and that hurts worse than any tooth ache you have had!!
You can take pain meds as directed!. You will feel sore and swollen
take the some gause and fold it in half and put on area of extraction DO NOT TRY TO PUT IN THE HOLE!!.!.!.is it just one!? bite down firmly for 30 min!. but don't sleep tonight with them in!. your blood should lessen soon and your saliva will be pink for a day or two but you won't need the gause tomorrow and probably not later tonight, as long as the blood is stopped or extreemly lite and not heavy!.
Eat soft foods
jello, soups, ice cream, puddings, anything soft, yogert etc
no soda or alcohol to drink
you can put a pack of frozen peas/corn on your face where the tooth was removed, on your cheek side to help with swelling
tomorrow you can rinse your mouth every 2-3 hours with salt water and gently expell water from mouthWww@Answer-Health@Com

I got mine out last week and the oral surgeon gave me a bokklet of instructions!. Here are some of them: No milk products, caffine, or hard foods(duh!ouch) for at least 24 hours!. (Soups were pretty much my food for several days!.) Do not drink through a straw or spit in any way this could cause a drysocket!. you really need to take pain medicine cause when the numbness wears off you will hurt!. I folded my gauze in 1/2 or 1/4 then bit down on it!. But i only used it for about 30 min!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
If you do eat something right now eat like jello, pudding, ice cream!.!.!.!.stuff that's soft but you want to be very careful not to eat anything that you have to suck into your mouth and do NOT use a straw to drink anything either becuz that will give you dry socket and if you think you feel pain now if you get dry socket that will be way worse than anything you ever felt before!.!.!.!.The best thing to do when your putting the gauze in your mouth is to get like 4 or 5 peace's of it and put half of it between your cheek and your jaw and the other half will lay over the part that you just had surgery on, it's never gonna stay in place really good but that's the best way to keep it covered most of the time!.!.!.!.!.!.If you can sleep that's the best thing to do right now also!.!.!.!.!.Goodluck ;)Www@Answer-Health@Com
