"IF YOU RECEIVED SEDATION
Upon arriving home, lie down with your head elevated until the effects of the anesthetic are diminished.
On the way home your driver can get you something cold and soft to eat, like a milkshake. Just remove gauze and spoon in. No straws for the whole week following your procedure.
Anesthetic effects vary by individual. Drowsiness may last for a short period of time or for several hours.
Plan to rest for the remainder of the day. Do not drive or operate mechanical equipment for 24 hours following surgery.
BLEEDING
Bite down firmly on the gauze packs for 30 minutes to ensure that any post-operative bleeding stops. Change it out every 30 minutes as needed.
Intermittent bleeding, oozing, or pink saliva is often present for several days depending on activity. Repeated gauze pack placement is not required for this.
Bleeding should never be severe. If it is, reposition the gauze packs to ensure they are exerting pressure over the surgical areas.
Try biting on a tea bag for 30 minutes. Moisten the tea bag, squeeze damp-dry, wrap with moist gauze, and insert over site.
If the bleeding remains uncontrolled, please call our office."
