Why after the first tooth extraction.
The doctor told me not to spit, but to swallow it in my stomach
Is there a difference between spitting it out and swallowing it?Let's talk about it in detail today
Recovery Process After Tooth Extraction:
Half an hour after the tooth extraction, a blood clot will form, the blood clot protects the wound, and also accelerates the healing of the tooth extraction wound;
24 hours after tooth extraction, tissue fibers begin to slowly "reside" into the blood clot, forming blood clots organic, which is to better protect the teeth from bacterial infection;
After 3-5 days of tooth extraction, the epithelial tissue gradually covers the tooth socket, and the gingival epithelium also begins to grow towards the surface of the blood clot, gradually covering the entire wound surface;
Seven days after the tooth extraction, new bone will gradually form in the socket.
But just condensedBlood clots are fragile, just like tofu ,It's easy to destroy
If spitting or gargling on the day of tooth extraction will cause it to be in the mouthNegative pressure is generatedIt is easy to spit out the blood clot, causing bleeding, without the protection of the blood clot, and the tooth extraction wound is also easily inflamed, and it is easy to form a dry socket.
So what to do if there is too much saliva?
Within 24 hoursIt can be swallowed back gently.
Day 1It is normal to have a slight blood streak.
Heavy bleeding requires medical attention.
The next dayA small amount of blood is also normal, and the mouth can be rinsed gently.
