To prevent pimples, eat fresh fruits, green vegetables, drinking plenty of water should be an essential part of your routine and intake of oily fried foods, an excess of sugar-salt should be avoided.

I understand your concern about your mom's dental procedures. While I can't offer specific medical advice, I can provide some general information and encourage you to discuss any concerns with your mom's dentist directly. Regarding the combination of procedures: having a root canal on the first and second molars followed by wisdom teeth removal on the same day is not inherently problematic. In fact, dentists sometimes schedule multiple procedures together for efficiency and patient comfort. However, the specific details of your mom's case and individual health are crucial in determining if it was the right approach. If you have specific concerns about combining these procedures, the best course of action is to discuss them directly with your mom's dentist. They can explain the rationale behind the decision and address any specific questions you might have. Regarding bleeding during the root canal: some minor bleeding during a root canal is not uncommon. It can occur during the removal of infected tissue or while preparing the canals for filling. However, significant or persistent bleeding might indicate potential complications. If you're concerned about the amount or duration of bleeding, don't hesitate to raise it with your mom's dentist. They can assess the situation and determine if any further action is necessary. Regarding precautions: following your mom's dentist's post-operative instructions is crucial for optimal healing and preventing complications. These may include pain management, dietary restrictions, oral hygiene recommendations, and activity limitations. Gentle brushing and flossing around the treated teeth, as advised by the dentist, is important for oral hygiene without disturbing the healing process. Managing potential discomfort with prescribed or over-the-counter pain medication can help ensure your mom's comfort during recovery. Avoiding strenuous activities in the immediate post-operative period allows the treated teeth to heal properly. Regarding the second visit: removing the cotton used for initial closure after a root canal is a standard procedure. It allows the dentist to assess the healing process and perform any necessary further treatment. If you have any concerns about this, or any other aspect of the upcoming visit, be sure to discuss them with your mom's dentist beforehand. They are there to address your questions and ensure your mom's well-being. Remember, open communication with your mom's dentist is key to understanding the procedures, addressing any concerns, and ensuring optimal healing. I hope this general information is helpful. Please prioritize seeking professional advice from your mom's dentist for any specific questions or concerns you may have.

It's completely understandable to be worried about this situation. Leaving cotton in for 5 days after a tooth extraction can increase the risk of complications, so it's important to address it right away. Here's what you need to do: 1. Contact your dentist as soon as possible: this is the most important step. Don't try to remove the cotton yourself, as this could further irritate the extraction site. Your dentist will be able to remove it safely and assess the condition of the wound. 2. Be prepared to describe your symptoms: tell your dentist about any pain, swelling, bad breath, fever, or difficulty swallowing you're experiencing. These could be signs of an infection. 3. Follow your dentist's instructions carefully: they will likely clean the extraction site, prescribe antibiotics if necessary, and provide instructions on post-operative care. 4. Don't panic: while it's understandable to be worried, the earlier you get help, the less likely you are to experience serious complications. Most cases of cotton remaining after extraction can be managed effectively with proper care. Here are some additional resources that you might find helpful: american dental association: url/ national institute of dental and craniofacial research: url Gov/ mayo clinic: url/ remember, you're not alone in this.
