4hw.com.cn: I believe that the problem of tooth health has been a problem faced by many people. One of the most puzzling is how long you can eat after extraction. In fact, it's not necessary to wait for 24 hours. Generally, you can eat and drink water 2 hours after pulling out your teeth, but you can't eat overheated food that day, mainly liquid food, such as eating porridge or eating noodles, otherwise the bleeding may be more serious. Remember that brushing and mouthwashing can only be carried out 24 hours later. The first time after pulling out your teeth, you need to tighten the cotton ball to stop bleeding quickly, and it will take half an hour to spit out.
In addition, eating saliva may contain blood is a normal phenomenon! Do not suck the wound. It will swell slightly at the beginning of the operation. Try to bite with the other side of the teeth as much as possible. Try to chew the wound a little better in a week or so, so as to avoid big and small faces. Don't forget to take some anti-inflammatory drugs such as amoxicillin capsule to eliminate the swelling and pain.
When can you eat normally after tooth extraction?
No matter whether you have suture or not, you can eat normally 4 days later. The previous week is the care period of the wound. Protect the blood clot, keep the diet light and avoid spicy food, so that the wound slowly grows granulation tissue, and the back does not swelling and pain, and the third month, the alveolar bone can be completely healed after stable growth.
What should we pay attention to after tooth extraction?
1. Postoperative saliva is too much to spit out to swallow.
2. The first 4 days had better not drink hot water, try to drink warm boiled water, otherwise it will accelerate blood circulation, not conducive to inflammation relief.
3、 Mouthwash after a meal may contain a mouthwash with a chlorhexidine gluconate content, such as KIN gargle.
4. To avoid strenuous exercise, eat more carrots, fresh orange and other fruits and vegetables to promote wound healing.
After tooth extraction, the suture will be sewn only if the wound is large, and the suture cannot be absorbed. Remember to remove the suture in the hospital about one week!
