Just got my bottom wisdom teeth pulled. Ugh!! The right side of my face is killing me! Anyone have teeth pulled and have any recovery advice? Too much pain to sleep, and would desperately appreciate a distraction. Thanks.
My doc gave me a script for an anti sceptic numbing mouthwash when I had my tonsils out last year. I wish I had known about it when I had my wisdom teeth pulled.
I just had my bottom two wisdom teeth pulled too. My left one is killing me. I have been taking motrin and doing salt warm water rinsing after each meal along with the mouthwash the dentist gave me in the am and again in the pm. good luck hope it gets better
I had mine pulled minus the anaethetic about 10 years back (diabetic...didn't want to have to go to hospital so chose no anaesthetic) - I used cordosyl mouthwash and aspirin
Ice, ice, and more ice. I had a sling thing that wrapped around my head that held ice packs against my cheeks. I kept it on constantly and changed out the packs every coupke hours. Those, plus keeping up with pain killers helped me have a quick recovery with minimal swelling. Hope you feel better soon!
