Post OP Instructions
Your child should not drink with a straw for the next few days following an extraction. In addition, your child should maintain a soft diet until the affected area heals and your child experiences no pain while eating.
Your child’s gums may be sore around the extraction site. Minor bleeding is normal during the days following the extraction, as the affected area begins to heal. Swelling after an extraction is also not uncommon and should not cause alarm. If this occurs, apply an ice pack for 15 minutes on and 15 minutes off as needed in the 24 hours following tooth removal.
A clean mouth heals faster. Gentle brushing around the extraction site can be started immediately along with warm salt water rinses (1/4 teaspoon to a glass of water) to aid with any discomfort.
