Tooth Extraction Aftercare: What to Do in the First 24 Hours for Faster Healing

Tooth Extraction Aftercare: What to Do in the First 24 Hours

The first 24 hours after a tooth extraction are crucial for proper healing. During this time, a blood clot forms inside the socket where the tooth was removed. This clot protects the underlying bone and nerves and serves as the foundation for new tissue growth. If the clot becomes dislodged, complications such as dry socket can occur, causing severe pain and delayed healing.
