Heal Quick And Heal Right
Taking care of yourself before and after your procedure will help you recover with minimal to no discomfort. Our surgical instructions will insure that you are on the right path before and after you come to see us.
If you ever have any questions or concerns about your treatment please call us anytime at 916-983-6637.
On the day of your appointment please arrive 15-20 minutes prior to your scheduled time. This has proven to help patients settle in and release the pre-surgery nervousness. We will make you as comfortable as possible during your visit.
Do not disturb the wound. Avoid rinsing, spitting, or touching the wound on the day of surgery. There will be a metal healing abutment protruding through the gingival (gum) tissue.
A responsible adult must accompany the patient to the office, remain in the office during the procedure, and drive the patient home after recovery.
Post-operative care of the removal of impacted teeth is very important. Carefully follow instructions to minimize unnecessary pain and complications of infection and/or swelling.
After tooth extraction, it's important for a blood clot to form to stop the bleeding and begin the healing process. We ask you to bite on a gauze pad in the tooth extraction area for 30 minutes after the appointment.
Do not disturb the wound. If surgical packing was placed, leave it alone as the packing helps to keep the tooth exposed. If the packing becomes dislodged or falls out do not be alarmed.
We have collected common questions that pertain to pre-surgery, surgery, and post-surgery concerns our patients often have. If you have other concerns please call us at 916-983-6637.
