Did you know? The earliest 'dentists' were, in fact, the barber-surgeons, whose expertise with cutting tools made them the most qualified professionals to perform extractions and other basic procedures.

Wisdom teeth are the last set of teeth that appear in your mouth. These generally grow in our late teens or early twenties. Due to lack of sufficient space in your jaw bone, these teeth create lots of issues, which range from mild to severe. Hence the suitable option is to undergo wisdom teeth removal. The wisdom teeth removal cost is affordable due to the advancement in the field of dentistry.

The most important thing after the wisdom teeth removal is post-operative care. The healing rate of the extracted site depends on post-operative care. If you ignore the aftercare of the procedure, you will suffer from grave complexities, and some of the problems would be incurable. This blog explains in details about dry socket and its home remedies, which arise due to the lack of proper post-operative care.
 
What Is Dry Socket?

Dry socket is a dental condition that occurs after teeth extraction and more commonly in wisdom teeth extraction. The blood clot at the area of extraction dislodges before the wound has fully healed.
People who smoke, have poor oral hygiene, experience an unusually complicated extraction, have blood thinning medications or oral contraceptives, and those who have a history of tooth or gum infections in the past are more prone to dry socket. As the wisdom teeth removal cost is within the budget most people, who have wisdom teeth pain undergo the extraction procedure, which sometimes leads to dry socket.

Home Remedies for Dry Socket

There are different treatment methods available for a dry socket that your dentist prescribes. But the following are the home treatments, which can help alleviate the dry socket pain or discomfort,

1) Rinse With Salt Water

Dissolve salt in warm water and swish this around in your mouth for a minute, or flush out the dry socket with a syringe that your surgeon gives you. Repeat this process at least three times per day after meals.

2) Applying Alternate Cold And Ice Packs

For the first 24 hours after your tooth extraction, use cold packs against your face to reduce swelling. Then apply the heat pack to manage pain. Heat helps to soothe pain caused by dry socket while cold numbs your nerves. 

3) Clove Oil

Clove oil contains eugenol, which acts as anaesthetic, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial. Add clove oil to sterile gauze and apply directly to the affected area. Keep the gauze for 20 minutes.

4) Honey

​
Honey has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. It significantly reduces the dry socket’s inflammation, edema, pain, and discomfort. Take raw honey on sterile gauze and place it directly on the affected area. Change the gauze every few hours.

So don’t live with pain. Pay keen attention to your dentist’s instruction and be safe from dry socket problems. Also the cheap wisdom teeth removal Sydney is a common procedure these days, and the cost of wisdom teeth removal is affordable, hence don’t compromise with the discomfort.
