Question 1

can u eat after oral surgery?

Accepted Answer

: Depending on the procedure a soft, bland diet would be recommended.

Question 2

what amount does a oral surgery cost?

Accepted Answer

Depends: It depends on your treatment; since we don't know what it will be, your question cannot be answered. Make an appointment for a consultation with a local oral surgeon and you will get the answers to your question.

Question 3

i'm afraid of needles and oral surgery?

Accepted Answer

Afraid: Many people are to some extent. If you let it prevent you from seeking and obtaining proper dental care, then you will suffer more in the end. I find if you get a recommendation for a skilled and caring dentist, they can help allay your fears and walk you through the process. If you can&#x27;t even get to make the appointment, speak to therapist. You will be happier in the end, not to mention healthier.

Question 4

why can't i get aroused after oral surgery?

Accepted Answer

Sex after surgery: Sex is a high function of the human brain. When the body has been traumatized, like with surgery, the body preserves energy for healing. Your libido will return soon enough.

Question 5

do you know if they will put me to sleep for oral surgery?

Accepted Answer

You should: Talk to your surgeon about your case. I find that most people do not need to be sedated once they understand the procedure.

Question 6

how can i calm hypersensitive nerves after an oral surgery?

Accepted Answer

It depends: It depends on why your nerves are hypersensitive and which nerves are involved.  Most likely taking the pain medication your dentist gave you should help.  Maybe it would be better to try some anti-inflammatory medication like ibuprophen.  You should take to your dentist about this.

Question 7

could the medication you take after oral surgery make you nauseous?

Accepted Answer

Pain Meds: Narcotic pain meds can make you nauseous. Take half a pill if you must, or try taking only a NSAID.

Question 8

wondering if it's okay to use oral gel on a wound from oral surgery?

Accepted Answer

Probably not: Unlikely that an oral get would make a difference. Use the pain medication that was precribed for you. I'd be concerned about overdose using large amount of gel in an open wound.

Question 9

i heard only the top of the top can land an oral surgery residency. how true is this?

Accepted Answer

You're Accurate: Post graduate programs are competitive and since the spaces are limited, the programs can choose the candidates they want. This usually translates to students who graduated at the top of their class.

Question 10

what can i do if my dissolveable stitches are falling out after oral surgery, this normal?

Accepted Answer

Depends: There are different resorb-able sutures types, with different dissolving time frames.  These time frames are also an average and depend upon several factors - including a patient's enzymatic activity.  Additionally, your diet and oral "activity" could also cause the premature loss of sutures.  Within a few days of surgery, then no it is not normal.  Give your oral and maxillofacial surgeon a call.
