Teeth Getting Pulled?

My fiance is getting his wisdom teeth pulled on the 25th. Is there anything he needs to do before or after they get done.





He is getting 4 teeth pulled.

He should not take any aspirin at least 10 days before. aspirin thins your blood and there is a good chance of excessive bleeding .Another thing is to make sure there is a lot of ice available for ice packs afterward. Have a specified %26quot;drooling %26quot; towel and pillow ready for his return home. Popsicles and juice should be already available. I also think you should go through your movie selection and have his favorite ones readily available. the first day after will be very uncomfortable so think of everything a head of time that will make him comfortable. Oh yes -buy the way he may not be a typical male but in case he is , he%26#039;s gonna want you stay close %26quot; don%26#039;t leave me here like this %26quot;, so it might be good for you to have a deck of cards or what ever you can think of to retain your sanity. Men are big babies when it comes to pain .
Reply:After they pull them, the place where he gets them out will instruct him on how to recover, I wish him the best! :)
Reply:Hello, I am a dental hygienist and my father and both brothers were/are dentists..... four at a time is a real stretch.... if they are impacted..... I pray he is going to a maxofacial surgeon and not a general dentist..... Wisdom teeth have very very little root therefore are usually very easily removed. However, sometimes they can be very impacted and need to be sectioned to come out... taking a long time and leaving you with lots of pain..... but that is not bad, for there are meds.... use ice afterwards 10 min on and 10 off...... Why is he not doing one side at a time..... all four quadrants are very difficult. unless the doc knows by xray that they have no root and will easily just roll out. Please make sure you are using an oral surgeon........ sometimes these docs try to do everything and in the middle have to section and send you to a surgeon. Very few are ever scheduled for all four at same time... usually one side at a time..... anyway, if i can be of anymore help, please email me.... G-d Bless, sally you seem young but make sure he has no heart murmur and no reason to take antibiotics first.... 4 at once is going to be hard, but i have seen it done. one other thing that can happen is called a dry socket... where the top heals over and leaves a pocket of air.. this is extremely painful and you must immediately return to doctor for him to re open the wound., they will give you a syrginge to clean out the holes.... use it.... sally
Reply:Do not drink I went to see Slaughter at the Alrosa Villa the night before mine were pulled. I had been to hundreds of shows and this was first club concert I had ever been too. They had local bands open and Slaughter did not take the stage till midnight. I got drunk as a skunk in a brewery.


The next morning my blood was so thin I bleed like crazy and my blood would not clot!


If he is a smoker do not smoke for 24-48 hours or you will get dry socket it is the most pain you will ever feel in your life.


I was scared so I took a blindfold and walkman ( before i-pod era) with me and did not hear or see a thing.


Eat only soft foods for a few days like mashed potatoes and do not eat nuts or anything that can get stuck in the new creators in your mouth.
