First Hour:  Bite down gently but firmly on the gauze packs that have been places over the surgical areas, making sure they remain in place.  Change them after the first 45 minutes.  If active bleeding persists, place enough new gauze to obtain pressure over the surgical site from another 30 minutes.  The gauze may then be changed as necessary. (Typically ever 30 to 45 minutes)

Exercise Care:  Do not disturb the surgical area today.  Do NOT rinse vigorously or probe the area with any objects.  You may brush your teeth gently.  DO NOT SMOKE for at least 48 hours, as this is very detrimental to the healing process and can cause dry socket.

Bleeding: Intermittent bleeding or oozing overnight is normal.  Bleeding may be controlled

Persistent Bleeding:  Bleeding should never be severe.  If so, if so it usually means the packs are being clenched between teeth only and not exerting pressure on the surgical sites.  Try repositioning the packs.  If bleeding remains uncontrolled please call our office.

Swelling: Swelling is often associated with oral surgery.  It can be minimized by using a cold pack, ice bag or a bag of frozen peas wrapped in a towel and applied firmly to the cheek adjacent to the surgical area.  This should be applied for 20 minutes on and 20 minutes off for the first 48 hours after surgery.

Pain: Unfortunately most oral surgery is accompanied by some degree of discomfort.  You will usually have a prescription for pain medication.  If you take the first pill before the anesthetic has worn off and you should be able to manage any discomfort better.  

Some patients find that the stronger pain medication can cause nausea, but if you precede each pain pill with a small amount of food, chances for nausea will be reduced.  The effects of pain medication vary widely among individuals.  It is important to take the Ibuprofen you may have been prescribed as written.
