Pulling out teeth is a painful experience, but less painful when children lose their baby teeth.
Key takeaways:
· Tooth extraction is associated with bleeding. The dentist will use a small piece of gauze to prevent excessive bleeding.
· Your child should get some rest after tooth extraction to avoid excess bleeding.
· You should keep the mouth clean by swishing some saline water. It will help to prevent infection at the site of extraction.
You can also give your child painkillers such as Tylenol and Ibuprofen after the blood clot has formed. However, remember not to give your child any pain medication before the extraction appointment as it can lead to blood clotting issues.
