Post op dental care: If you would like to take OTC pain meds following your visit, please do. You might be a little sore, but nothing that should last very long.

Recovery: Should be relatively uneventful. If you have any soreness, Ibuprofen as per package directions is advisable. Should have no frank pain or swelling. If tooth or surrounding tissues are more than a little sore, check in with your Dentist.
