In our daily life, if we don't properly protect our teeth, when dental caries, periodontitis, pulpitis and other oral problems appear, they will be more serious and need to be extracted. Tooth parts are very painful after tooth extraction, so what food should I eat after tooth extraction? Because there is inflammation in the mouth, let's take a look at what food to eat after tooth extraction.

1, what food to eat after tooth extraction?

People must know what to eat after tooth extraction. If they don't know what to eat after tooth extraction, they can't help their tooth extraction site recover as soon as possible. Generally speaking, the choice of food should pay attention to these two principles:

1. Mainly liquid food.

2-4 hours after tooth extraction, if you want to eat something, you should choose a liquid diet, such as common milk, ice bath, juice and other foods, which is very suitable for eating after tooth extraction. Four hours after tooth extraction, patients can eat some soft food and semi-liquid diet, such as soft steamed bread, boiled noodles, egg soup, vegetable paste soup, rice porridge and so on. And try not to force your teeth.

2. light diet

Patients who have just had their teeth pulled out should eat less meat, usually light food and more vegetables. However, when eating vegetables, we should pay attention to the cooking methods. It is best to make them into soft, rotten and finely divided forms, or make them into powder, sauce, juice and so on. With a good entrance as the main criterion.

2. Pay attention after tooth extraction

1. After tooth extraction 1~2 days, there will be a little bloodshot in the saliva of patients. Don't lick the wound with your tongue, and don't suck or touch the wound with your fingers or toothpicks.

2. The tooth washer should be used on the second day after tooth extraction, because it may brush off the blood clot in the wound prematurely, leading to bleeding. Pay attention to proper rest on the day of tooth extraction, and don't do strenuous exercise and heavy physical labor. If you spit out blood clots after tooth extraction, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time.

3. After tooth extraction, bite the gauze cotton ball put on the wound and spit it out for about 30 minutes. The gauze cotton ball mainly plays the role of stopping bleeding and promoting blood clots in wounds. Spitting the gauze ball too early before the blood clot coagulates will cause bleeding, but don't bite the gauze ball for too long to avoid increasing the chance of infection.

Eat some soft food after tooth extraction, don't eat too hard or too hot food, and don't smoke or drink. Try not to rinse your mouth and brush your teeth on the day of tooth extraction. Sometimes doctors prescribe mouthwash for patients with tooth extraction in order to prevent infection after tooth extraction.

3. Failure in tooth extraction

1, hemorrhagic disease

Patients with hemorrhagic diseases, such as leukemia, hemophilia, severe anemia, scurvy, purpura, etc. It is not advisable to stop bleeding after tooth extraction. This kind of patients often have gum bleeding, nasal bleeding, skin bleeding and ecchymosis. , which requires cognitive examination and laboratory tests, cannot be easily extracted.

2. Patients with kidney disease

Kidney disease, renal failure or severe kidney disease are not suitable for tooth extraction. Patients with mild nephropathy can be injected with antibiotics for 2-3 days before tooth extraction to prevent temporary bacteremia after tooth extraction and aggravate nephropathy.

3. Hyperthyroidism

Patients with hyperthyroidism may have thyroid crisis or even die soon due to infection, anxiety or surgery, so such patients can't have their teeth extracted casually.

4. Oral malignant tumor

All teeth belonging to oral malignant tumor should be removed in large pieces together with the tumor. If the tooth is extracted alone, it will accelerate the spread of tumor cells. Moreover, the part that has undergone radiotherapy cannot be extracted, so as not to cause radiation osteomyelitis.

5. Patients with liver disease

Patients with hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, impaired liver function and decreased prothrombin and fibrinogen in blood are particularly prone to bleeding. Therefore, in the active period of hepatitis and liver injury, tooth extraction is not suitable, and liver protection treatment should be carried out first, and coagulation drugs such as vitamin K should be applied before tooth extraction.
