properly positioned in
your mouth without

9. Post Extraction Instructions
 Patient should be advised to firmly bite on the
gauze piece placed on the extraction socket for a
minimum of half an hour after extraction.
 Patient should be advised not to rinse his mouth
vigorously for the next 24 hours.
 Not to suck from a straw on the day of extraction.
 Warm saline rinses & gentle brushing should be
advised from the next day.
 Do not spit minimum for 24 hours after extraction
because it can dislodge the clot which can lead to a
painful condition known as dry socket.

10.  Apply ice pack on the side where surgery was
performed to reduce swelling.
 Advised to take soft diet & cold liquid on
the day of extraction.
