Wisdom teeth—also known as third molars—typically erupt between the ages of 17 and 25. When they don't have enough space or grow in the wrong position, they can cause pain, inflammation, infection, and damage to neighboring teeth.

POST-EXTRACTION RECOMMENDATIONS

– Gently press the gauze for 30–45 minutes to stop the bleeding.

– If bleeding continues, place a new gauze pad and repeat the process.

During the first 24 hours avoid:

  • To spit
  • Rinsing your mouth
  • Drinking with a straw

This prevents the clot from dislodging and prevents alveolitis.

Apply ice to the cheek closest to the treated area for 15 minutes ON / 15 minutes OFF for the first 6–8 hours.

For 72 hours avoid smoking, vaping and consuming alcohol, as these delay healing.

During the first day, consume:

  • Warm soups
  • Purees
  • Juices without straws
  • Soft foods

Avoid hard, hot or spicy foods.

Take pain relievers and antibiotics exactly as prescribed. Do not self-medicate.

  • Do not brush the extraction area for 24 hours.
  • The next day, brush carefully and rinse gently with warm salt water (3 times a day).

Avoid strenuous exercise for 48 hours to prevent bleeding or swelling.

Light bleeding or pink saliva is normal for the first few hours. If the bleeding is heavy and persistent, contact us immediately.

Call the clinic if you present with:

  • Intense pain that increases after the 2nd day
  • Bad smell or bad taste
  • Fever
  • Excessive inflammation
  • Bleeding that does not stop
