Dental surgery - Wrocław

Dental surgery

Dental surgery is a wide range of procedures that involve both hard and soft tissues within the oral cavity. Although it is most commonly associated with tooth extraction, dental surgery encompasses many other procedures, such as the treatment of lesions of the jawbone and jawbone and the correction of abnormal gums and mucosa. In our practice, we place great importance on patient comfort during and after treatment, and in tooth extraction we use PRF (platelet-rich plasma) technology to ensure accelerated tissue regeneration and rapid recovery.

Dental surgery is also crucial for the treatment of endodontic and periodontal problems, which often allows us to preserve dead but properly healed teeth and regenerate the surrounding bone and tissue.

Is the treatment painful?

Before the procedure, the patient is anaesthetised and, after the procedure, appropriate pain medication is prescribed as required to minimise unwanted symptoms

What to do after tooth extraction?

In order for the wound after tooth extraction to heal properly, it is necessary to:

  1. Apply pressure with the swab to the area of the extracted tooth for 15-20 minutes. After this time, the compress should be replaced. Holding the compress for more than 30 minutes is definitely not beneficial.
  2. Do not eat while the anaesthetic is in effect (approximately 2 hours). Eat only cool meals for two days and do not drink drinks through a straw.
  3. Brush your teeth on the same day, avoiding the area after an extracted tooth. Be sure to spit out the foam from the paste and do not rinse your mouth.
  4. After 24 hours, start gently rinsing the mouth with ready-made preparations such as Eludril, Corsodyl or self-prepared cool sage infusion, lightly salted water, hydrogen peroxide solution (1 tablespoon of hydrogen per half a glass of water). Please note that dynamic rinsing may damage the delicate clot.
  5. Exercise and being in high temperatures should be avoided for 48 hours. This leads to excessive bleeding and increased pain.
  6.  Refer from using substances for 24 hours.

Possible discomforts after surgery and how to deal with them

Pain
As soon as the anaesthesia wears off, there is pain, which can easily be eliminated by taking a painkiller tablet. (PARACETAMOL, IBUPROM ). After a difficult extraction or extensive surgery, the pain may persist for a long time, in which case the doctor writes a prescription for a painkiller or recommends taking suitably selected over-the-counter medicines.
If the pain is not relieved 3 days after the procedure, you should see your doctor.

Swelling
Swelling may occur after surgery. It is usually greatest on the second day after surgery. To prevent it, apply a cold compress after the procedure, for 20 minutes, then put it off for 20 minutes and repeat this action several times. For this purpose, you can use the drug AESCIN (chestnut extract), available at the pharmacy, and apply it for several days taking 3 times a day, 2-3 tablets at a time.

Post-treatment bleeding
Bleeding usually subsides within 30 minutes after the procedure, but gentle oozing of blood may continue for 5-6 hours. Saliva may be slightly blood-stained for 24 hours after the procedure. Management of bleeding:

  1. If it does not subside after 5-6 hours, large clots should be removed with a sterile tampon. Then roll it and bite down on it.

  2.  Change the bandage after 20 minutes

  3. If changing the bandage several times does not work, contact your doctor.
