Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Take precautions for 24 hours if the wisdom tooth has been extracted non-surgically but, if the tooth has been removed by surgical intervention with sutures placed, then take precautions until the sutures are removed.

3. Do not gargle forcefully.
4. Do not take alcohol or hot drinks for 24 to 36 hours.
5. Eat soft food and the food must be cold for the first 24 to 36 hours.
6. Do not smoke or chew tobacco.
