Extraction of a tooth is best avoided in most instances and only carried out as a last resort if the tooth is badly affected and beyond repair. However for whatever reason if a tooth has to be extracted, here are the simple tips for a trouble free experience post extraction.
• Bleeding from the site of tooth removal is not uncommon and can be arrested (stopped) by biting hard on a piece of cotton or gauze usually for a period of 45 minutes.
• If there is slight bleeding after removal of the cotton pack, one need not panic, but have to just bite on another tight pack of cotton for another 30 minutes.
• If the extraction happens to be surgical procedure (usually happens with wisdom tooth), then a cold / ice pack has to be placed externally, just at the side where the procedure was done, for about two hours. Ice application helps reduce swelling and pain associated with any surgical procedure. The earlier the ice application is started, the better it is.
• On the night of tooth extraction it is better to sleep with head a little raised (may be one can use an additional pillow)
• It is advisable not to touch the face or apply any kind of external pressure.
• Strictly no external balm application should be done. This can cause extensive pain, swelling and can delay healing.
• For the first 24 hours following tooth removal one should consume (eat or drink) only cold stuff. Hot and spicy food and liquids have to be strictly avoided.
• For 24 – 48 hours following tooth removal, one should take only liquid or soft food stuff, and should avoid chewing on the side where the tooth was removed.
• While brushing that day and the next day, it is better to avoid the site of tooth removal.
• Strictly avoid fiddling the extraction site with your finger or tongue.
• Smoking has to be strictly avoided for a minimum of 72 hours following a tooth extraction
• If stitches have been placed, then one should visit the dentist to get it removed after 8 – 10 days.

Hey there would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using?
I’m planning to start my own blog soon but I’m having
a tough time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
The reason I ask is because your design and style seems
different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique.
