"The peace of mind of enjoying good oral health" Sin Cordales
The wisdom teeth or third molars present frequent problems due to the evolution of the human being with the size of the upper jaw and the mandible, producing a lack of space that prevents the normal eruption of the wisdom teeth, thus affecting other teeth as they develop, pushing them and causing them to have a malposition. Unerupted wisdom teeth can cause bacteria accumulation and infections, and can also cause injuries to healthy teeth and intense pain.
When the wisdom teeth do not erupt, some people may think that this is normal and not worry, however, these unerupted teeth can give rise to abscesses, cysts or tumors that, if not identified in time, can produce more serious conditions. Surgical Tooth Surgery must be performed by a specialist, in this case a MAXILLOFACIAL SURGEON.
Recommendations before surgery: 1. Arrive half an hour before to read consents, resolve questions and concerns and be calm when entering surgery. 2. Attend the day of surgery with comfortable clothing. 3. If possible, always be accompanied by a family member or friend. 4. Eat a normal diet before the procedure or according to the surgeon's instructions. 5. Present yourself in an excellent state of oral hygiene. 6. Provide the surgeon with all information on medications, diseases and current health conditions. 7. Take the medication recommended by the surgeon before the procedure if recommended.
Recommendations after Wisdom Surgery: 1. Soft diet: Shredded chicken, ground meat, fish, vegetables, soups, porridge (foods at room temperature and without dairy products). 2. It is important that you take properly formulated medications as they will reduce inflammation, can suppress pain, and prevent the risk of infection. 3. Rest, physical activity can cause pain. 4. It is better that you are in a semi-sitting position since if you lie down, the force of gravity causes inflammation to increase. 5. Apply cold compresses (gel or ice) below and in front of the ears (mandibular angle), for 48 hours, intermittently (8 to 10 minutes). The cold produces vasoconstriction which prevents further inflammation. 6. After 48 hours you can apply warm water or calendula cloths. 7. Don't forget to brush your teeth 3 times a day. 8. Do not rinse with alcohol for the first 7 days. 9. No smoking. Cigarette smoke can destroy the blood clotting process. 10. Do not consume alcoholic beverages. 11. Do not limit the mouth opening, since the tissues are healing and you must make normal jaw movements. 12. Do not expose yourself to the sun, since high temperatures can cause inflammation and help the infectious process. 13. Don't forget to attend your control appointment.
