At Lakeland Smile Experts we will do everything to save your tooth, but sometimes it can’t be saved or restored and an extraction is needed.

After having your tooth extracted we know you would like to return to your normal eating and drinking routine . Good things take time and patience, and these two are really important in order for your wound to heal.

Fortunately there are 4 tricks and tips you can put into practice to ensure a fast recovery after your tooth extraction.

  1. Medication – If your dentist prescribed medication such as antibiotics, it’s really important that you follow these instructions.
  2. No Smoking – Remember you have a wound in your mouth and by smoking you will irritate the treated area.
  3. Straws – Avoid suction.
  4. Food – Eat Cold Soft Comfort Food.

Always follow your Daily Teeth Care Routine: Brush and Floss carefully after every meal.

If in between 24-48 hours you feel ill remember we have a qualified team that will evaluate the problem and minimize it as soon as possible. Call us at 888-994-5782 to make your appointment.
