It’s normal to experience some discomfort or mild pain after a dental procedure. Here’s what you can do to manage it:

  1. Take pain relief as directed: If prescribed, take the medication as instructed, or use over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen or acetaminophen, following the recommended dosage.
  2. Apply ice: If swelling accompanies the pain, apply an ice pack to the affected area for 15-20 minutes at a time to reduce swelling and discomfort.
  3. Avoid touching the area: Refrain from touching or disturbing the treated area, as this can worsen the pain or slow down the healing process.
  4. Eat soft foods: Stick to a soft diet and avoid chewing near the treated area to minimize discomfort.
  5. Follow post-procedure instructions: Ensure you’re following all the aftercare instructions provided during your procedure, as this can significantly help with your recovery.

If the pain persists or becomes severe, or if you experience unusual symptoms such as fever or swelling that doesn’t go down, contact us immediately for further advice and evaluation. Your comfort is our priority.

If you experience a dental emergency, such as severe pain, a knocked-out tooth, or any other urgent dental issue, it’s important to contact Dr. Erta Dental Clinic immediately. We prioritize emergency cases and will do our best to accommodate you as soon as possible. In the meantime, here are some general steps to take depending on the situation:

  • For a knocked-out tooth: Rinse it gently with water (avoid scrubbing), and try to place it back in the socket or keep it in milk until you can see a dentist.
  • For severe tooth pain: Use over-the-counter pain relief and avoid hot or cold foods. Contact us right away for an appointment.
  • For a broken or chipped tooth: Save any pieces of the tooth and contact us immediately for treatment.

Your dental health is our priority, even in emergencies, so don’t hesitate to reach out.

To ensure a smooth and comfortable experience during your dental procedure, here are a few steps to help you prepare:

  1. Follow pre-procedure instructions: If your procedure requires specific instructions (e.g., fasting before sedation), our team will provide you with clear guidelines. Please follow these instructions carefully.
  2. Discuss your concerns: Let us know if you have any concerns or anxieties about the procedure. We’re here to help and can adjust the approach to make you feel more at ease.
  3. Bring necessary documents: If you have any medical records, medications, or dental insurance information, please bring them with you to your appointment.
  4. Arrive early: Arriving a little early allows you time to complete any necessary paperwork and relax before the procedure.
  5. Arrange for transportation (if needed): For more complex procedures or sedation treatments, it’s a good idea to arrange for someone to drive you home afterward.

If you have any specific questions about your upcoming procedure, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We’re here to ensure you have the best experience possible!

After a tooth extraction, it’s important to follow proper aftercare to ensure a smooth recovery and reduce the risk of complications. Here are some key steps to follow:

  1. Control bleeding: Bite gently on a gauze pad for 30-45 minutes after the extraction to help stop the bleeding. If bleeding continues, replace the gauze and bite down gently for another 30 minutes.
  2. Rest and avoid physical activity: Rest for the remainder of the day, and avoid any strenuous activities for at least 24-48 hours to prevent complications.
  3. Apply ice: Use an ice pack on your cheek near the extraction site for 15-20 minutes at a time during the first 24 hours to reduce swelling.
  4. Pain management: Take any prescribed or over-the-counter pain medications as directed to manage any discomfort.
  5. Avoid smoking and straws: Refrain from smoking and using straws for at least 48 hours, as the suction can dislodge the blood clot and delay healing.
  6. Follow a soft diet: Eat soft foods and avoid chewing near the extraction site for a few days to allow proper healing.
  7. Keep the area clean: Gently rinse your mouth with warm salt water 24 hours after the extraction to help keep the area clean. Avoid vigorous rinsing.
  8. Watch for complications: If you notice increased swelling, severe pain, fever, or any unusual symptoms, contact us immediately for further evaluation.

By following these guidelines, you'll help ensure a smooth and speedy recovery. If you have any concerns during your healing process, don’t hesitate to contact us.
