Hello and first of all, a big thank you to everyone who has supported me in the lead-up to surgery today. My admission letter said scale and clean, radiographs, debridement, restorations.
So you can imagine my shock and meltdown when they told me I needed 6 fillings and all 4 wisdom teeth out! They had brought in an oral surgeon because one was close to a nerve, so I ended up not having a choice about GA. It’s all done and I’m home now.
My question is, when should I start brushing my teeth? It’s 7pm here, is it too risky to brush my teeth before bed tonight or in the morning tomorrow? And what precautions should I take when brushing after that for the next few days or so?
Thanks so much!
