I just had a tooth pulled and need some advice?!
Question: I just had a tooth pulled and need some advice!?
I guess you can say I'm being quite a baby about this whole thing!. I am in moderate pain right now but not severe!. I am a smoker and I waited about 4 hours before I smoked!. I left the gauze on there while I smoked to protect it some!. Is there anything else i need to know!? Do i remove the gauze to eat!? ThanksWww@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
It's best you don't smoke/suck through a straw/any other sucking type motions int he first 24 hours to prevent dry socket, even with a gauze in!.!. it's best to not do it!.
After the first day you can try but still not recommended!.
When you eat take the gauze out else you really don't be able to eat because they will be blocking the food really!.!.
Just use the gauze to control bleeding and if the blood is still coming out strong keep it there but once it starts only coming out a little you can take them out and just let them clot and start healing!. :)
