After oral surgery, Dr. Hinsley suggests you protect the surgical area
 

A blood clot should form in the wisdom tooth extraction site; this needs to be protected for proper healing. Healing is a delicate process and requires the restriction of certain activities; otherwise the blood clot can be dislodged.


Oral Surgery Care And Things You Must Avoid:

  • Sucking or blowing motions
  • Smoking
  • Drinking through a straw for 24 hours
  • Rinsing your mouth vigorously
  • Mouthwash (until your oral surgeon approves its use)
  • Cleaning teeth next to the extracted site for the rest of the day
  • Strenuous exercise for 24 hours
  • Hot liquids or alcoholic beverages

For more information on care for clots and post-surgical care, contact William E Hinsley Jr DMD MAGD at (888) 718-8975 today.
