Tooth Infection

Asked for Male, 49 years

Today my husband had wisdom tooth extraction doctor just extracted the external part and left the roots inside. Tomorrow is his flight abroad and he is going there the first time and he will stay there. I have a question what are the precautions should be taken in this condition to avoid infection. as he will be in a new country so it will be difficult for him to visit doctors.

Dear Patient,

Did his doctor not give him antibiotics? Give him tab augmentin 1g twice a day for one week, tablet dicloran 50mg bd for pain. He should use lukewarm water with salt to rinse his mouth gently after every meal. He should take Enziclor mouthwash with him to use if pain persists.

For further consultation, you can choose from our list of best Dentists in Lahore and seek in-person advice.
