Metal Mouth Message Board

i had my wisdom teeth extracted yesterday with local...didnt hurt...not so much pain as i thought...pretty bearable...

when can i brush??...what can i drink?
my dentist said i can rinse my mouth today...when will i be able to eat regular food...? im hungry for pizza lol

i didnt get stitches so no problems there.


just any tips from you guys would be great!

You can brush. Just be really careful to avoid the extraction sites and don't swish and spit excessively b/c you don't want to disturb the clots . Drink what you wish but do not use a straw. Eat what you want. As long as you chew slowly and avoid the extraction sites, you'll be fine. I ate a full breakfast out at a restaurant the day after my wisdoms were extracted.
