[quote name='crystalklear64']Wisdom teeth removal people halp.
I got my teeth out on tuesday. Its now friday obv. They gave me a syringe to rinse out the sockets, but it sounded like I wasn't supposed to be in so soon after the surgery (though the nurse or w/e seemed to thing I was healing fine).
So, when are you supposed to use the syringe? Should I be waiting longer to heal, how long should I be using it for etc.?
Obviously I'll give the dentist a call on Monday and ask, but in the meantime, what did ya'll do?
They basically just gave me the syringe and said have fun, as though the nurse thought someone else had already told me more about it.[/QUOTE]
I didn't use the syringe to rinse out until I felt it had healed; my doc said it was used to rinse out any bits of food that gets stuck in the sockets, not really for anything else (pain relief through water?). Then again my sockets were healed basically after 3 or 4 days.
