Well got my wisdom teeth and 4 other teeth (2 top and bottom) yesterday. when is it ok to brush my teeth? it d?


Answers: Be sure to brush as this helps to remove bacteria from your mouth, just avoid the extraction sites for about a week or until they have healed over and don't swish too vigorously when you rinse. You should be using warm salt water rinses now and exercising your jaws by opening and closing your mouth, wider each time and do this several times a day. This helps to regain the full function of your jaw and relieve the stiffness in your muscles caused from being open so wide for so long. Hope everything went well for you and that this advice will help you. Good luck!
You can brush them any time.
u can brush your teeth but don't brush over the exposed gum area yet or u will get dry socket...also don't suck through a staw or do anything that will cause sucking....u want to leave the blood clots in the socket and let them fall out and heal on themselves.

I hear dry socket is a ****** and half...so not swishing listerine or any type of liquid either...and try to eat softer foods for a bit.

Good Luck
Pulled??? If so, my husbands oral surgeon says not for the first two days, this includes rinsing mouths out with water or Listerine. The stitches will pull, even with the effort of swishing water... you can still floss tough... Ice cheeks 10 min on and 10 off for the first 24 hrs. No heat not needed. You will be pain free by day 3

If you got False teeth I don't know sorry
when you say wisdom teeth and 4 more, your saying you got 8 teeth pulled?
