Pain and swelling after oral surgery are common — but manageable with proper care.
We prescribe:
• Antibiotics to prevent secondary infections
• Anti-inflammatory and pain-relief medications
• Cold compression to reduce swelling
Post-surgery care matters:
✔ Maintain oral hygiene with prescribed mouthwash
✔ Follow a soft diet
✔ Keep the surgical area clean
Prevention is equally important.
During sports, especially contact sports, use mouth guards and avoid head-to-head collisions.
For daily safety, wear helmets and follow road traffic rules to prevent facial injuries.
Early care and prevention make all the difference.
