I had to have a tooth removed, bone graft put in because food kept getting between the two teeth and somehow there was bone loss, and the gum cut away so that I can have a bridge put in!. The gum had to be cut as I had a lot of it and the teeth needed to be exposed for the little hooks of metal to fit around the teeth in front of and behind the extracted tooth!. I didn't brush at the site for about three days, and by then they were a bit fuzzy!. I very gently brushed them, and each day I was able to use a bit more pressure to brush!. They suggested I use a gauze pad to clean them the first day!. Didn't do that as the stitches still hurt and didn't want to bleed, or get the gauze caught in the stitches!. Sometimes I would just use my nail to remove gunk!. As for the pain, I got a Tylenol with codeine script!. Only used one, took extra strength Tylenol instead!. I think everyone's pain threshold is different so you need to take what you need!. I couldn't sleep on my right side for a couple weeks due to the pain, but then again, I had a tooth removed!. My periodontist told me to use Listerine!. Original formula is strong, but you really can feel the difference!.
