Tooth extraction and Wisdom teeth removal: Post-operative care instructions
After an extraction, people often have the following questions and concerns.
If you have just had a tooth extracted or your wisdom teeth removed, these post-operative care instructions will help you understand what to expect.
After extractions you may experience the side effects described here and will also need to follow the instructions on this page. Following an extraction at hospital or in our rooms, patients should return home and rest quietly.
If you have heavy bleeding, severe pain or continued swelling for two to three days after your surgery, or a reaction to any medications, call our office immediately on 5229 3200. If this occurs after hours, please call your surgeon on his mobile number, which can be found on the post-operative instructions you’ll receive after your procedure.
