At Safewhite Dental Clinic in Salt Lake, Kolkata, patients receive comprehensive post-operation instructions to ensure a smooth and speedy recovery. After any dental procedure, the clinic’s experienced team provides personalized guidance on medication, oral hygiene, diet, and activity restrictions. Patients are advised to avoid hot or hard foods, refrain from smoking, and follow proper cleaning techniques to prevent infection. Here are some general questions with answers to get you started in your speedy recovery.
After tooth extraction/implant surgery, it’s important for a blood clot to form to stop the bleeding and begin the healing process. That’s why we ask you to bite on a gauze pad for 45 minutes after the appointment. If the bleeding or oozing persists, insert another gauze pad and bite firmly for another 30 minutes. You may have to do this several times.Do not rinse or spit for 24 hours after surgery.
Keep your fingers and tongue away from the socket or surgical area.
Use ice packs on the surgical area (side of face) for the first 48 hours; apply ice 20 minutes on and 10 minutes off. (Note: Bags of frozen peas work well.)
For mild discomfort, take ibuprofen or Paracetamol tablets every 3–4 hours.
For severe pain, use the medication prescribed to you.
Drink plenty of fluids. (Do not use a straw—this creates suction in the mouth that could cause complications.)
We suggest that you do not smoke for at least 5 days after surgery.
Avoid strenuous activity and do not exercise for at least 3–4 days after surgery. After that, be careful: your regular caloric and fluid intake have been reduced, so you may get light-headed, dizzy, or weak.After the first post-operative day, use a warm salt water rinse following meals for the first week to flush out particles of food and debris that may lodge in the surgical area. (Mix ½ teaspoon of salt in a glass of warm water. Mouthwash can be added for better taste.)
Your diet should consist mainly of soft, easily swallowed foods and cool drinks. Avoid anything that might get stuck in your teeth, so no seeds, nuts, rice, popcorn, or similar foods.
Act Fast: Time is critical! Reimplant within 30-60 minutes for the best chance of saving the tooth.
Handle with Care: Pick up the tooth by the crown (top), NOT the root.
Rinse, Don’t Scrub: Gently rinse with water or saline if dirty. Don’t use soap or scrub it!
Keep it Moist: Store in milk, saline, or (if no other option) your cheek. Avoid water or dry storage!
Get to a Dentist ASAP: Call your dentist immediately. They’ll try to reimplant the tooth.
### *Preoperative (Before the Root Canal)**Evaluation & Diagnosis:*
- Your dentist or endodontist will take X-rays to see the shape of your root canals and check for infection.
- You’ll be asked about your symptoms, like pain, sensitivity, or swelling.
Patient Education:*
- You’ll be informed about the procedure, what to expect, and why it’s necessary.
- Your medical history will be reviewed to check for any conditions or medications that may affect the treatment.
Anesthesia:*
- Local anesthesia will be used to numb the tooth and surrounding area. The procedure is typically *painless* once you're numb.
Pre-Treatment Instructions:*
- Eat a light meal before the procedure (unless told otherwise).
- Take prescribed medications (e.g., antibiotics or anti-inflammatories), if recommended.### *Postoperative (After the Root Canal)**Pain & Discomfort:*
- Mild to moderate discomfort is common for a few days.
- You may feel pressure or soreness around the treated tooth and jaw.
- Pain can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers (e.g., ibuprofen or acetaminophen).
Post-Treatment Instructions:*
- Avoid chewing on the treated side until the tooth is fully restored (usually with a crown).
- Maintain good oral hygiene (brushing, flossing) to help healing.
Swelling or Complications:*
- Some swelling may occur. If there is significant pain, swelling, or fever, contact the dentist—it could signal a complication.
- In rare cases, antibiotics may be prescribed post-op if infection risk remains.
Follow-Up:*
- A temporary filling is often placed, and you’ll need to return for a *permanent restoration* (typically a crown).
- A crown strengthens the tooth and prevents it from breaking.
*Tips for Patients:*
- Root canals save natural teeth—don’t delay treatment.
- Report any unusual symptoms right away.
- Most root canals are successful and pain-free with modern techniques.
BREAKING IN PERIOD:
Most new dentures require a breaking in period before they become comfortable. This length of time varies with each individual patient depending upon their ability, determination, and perseverance to learn how to use them. First, you must learn to keep them in place, and then gradually begin to use them.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
At first, it’s normal to feel awkward with your new dentures. Your appearance will probably undergo a slight change, your speech may seem altered, and some areas of your mouth may feel too full. You may also experience excess saliva initially until your mouth is used to wearing dentures. Time, patience, and some training will soon bring about a relaxation of the facial muscles and begin to alleviate some of the apparent problems.
SORE SPOTS:
Soreness from uneven pressure on the gums may develop at any time. This is not unusual and should be expected, especially if you have not worn a denture before. Sore spots are best corrected if the dentures are worn for at least 3-6 hours before returning to the office for an adjustment appointment. This will allow a more precise detection of the offending areas inside the denture, which are corrected by trimming. SPEAKING:
Learning to talk with your new dentures in place requires some patience and perseverance. Reading aloud is a very good way to learn to enunciate distinctly, especially those sounds or words that are not clear. Try to avoid any movements of the lips and tongue that tend to displace the dentures or cause them to click. Careful practice and repetition may help to hasten the process and produce a return to your normal, confident speech.
EATING:
Start with soft foods. Take small bites, chew slowly and try to overcome the difficulties as they arise. Keep the food distributed evenly on both sides and chew on the back teeth. To bite foods that normally require the front teeth, such as apples or corn on the cob, apply pressure backwards against the front when closing. If the denture begins to dislodge, biting with the side teeth may be an easier alternative. More difficult foods such as steak and carrots will require a gradual learning curve. Initially, it is recommended that you avoid eating sticky, hard, or chewy foods.
LOOSENESS:
If you have had teeth removed immediately prior to placement of the denture, it will soon feel loose, mainly due to the gum shrinkage that occurs as the gums heal. Complete healing of the gums and the underlying bone takes many months. During this period, a temporary liner may be placed inside the denture to keep it relatively snug. In addition, denture adhesives will help to retain a loose denture, once healing is complete, a permanent reline will be needed. In some cases, a new denture may need to be made for the best fit and function. There will be an additional charge for any necessary future denture relines or replacements.
MOUTH AND DENTURE HYGIENE:
It is extremely important to clean your dentures with a soft brush, a cleaning paste, or soapy water after each meal. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or bleach. Food particles that are trapped under the denture can cause inflammation of the gums and sore spots. Remove your dentures and rinse your mouth with water or mouthwash after each meal, if possible. If you had teeth removed immediately before insertion of your new denture, wear your denture day and night for the first 48 hours, removing only to clean them. Your denture will act as a bandage and promote healing. You should remove your dentures for at least 6 hours daily, usually when going to bed at night, to give your gum tissues a rest. During this time, the dentures can be cleansed and placed in a small tub of water to prevent them from drying out which can cause the denture to distort and not fit well. At least once a week, place them in an enzymatic or special denture cleaning solution to remove those otherwise insoluble stains and proteins. Because foods will stick to the soft tissues of your mouth, it is also beneficial to brush the roof of your mouth and your tongue daily. Massaging and stimulating these tissues will reduce the incidence of inflammation and sore spots.
BREAKAGE:
Dentures are made of acrylic (plastic) material and can break easily when misused or dropped. Never wrap your denture in a tissue or napkin and put it in your pocket or purse. When going outside of the house, keep a denture case or container to stow away your denture safely if you need to remove it for a short period of time. At home, keep your denture in a tub of water to prevent warping.
REGULAR EXAMS:
Be sure to have your dentures checked at least once annually as changes in the mouth, such as, bone loss, and wearing of the teeth will inevitably occur. When supporting gums and bone change, causing your denture to become loose or uncomfortable, your denture may need to be adjusted, relined or replaced. Making sure careful maintenance of the dentures and the supporting soft tissues, will help to slow down these changes.
