summary

Dental health is very important for human beings, but many people usually do not pay attention to the protection of dental health, leading to gingivitis, dental caries and other diseases. In the treatment of this kind of disease, in addition to the use of drugs, if the situation is special, sometimes the tooth needs to be removed, which is very easy to be infected. So, what are the symptoms of tooth extraction infection? Next, I'd like to share my views with you.

Tooth extraction infection symptoms?

There is no obvious pain in the extraction wound after tooth extraction, and there is no discomfort after 24 hours. However, if there is alveolar process injury, sharp alveolar edge, surrounding soft tissue injury, foreign body in extraction wound, dry socket and other inflammation or adjacent tooth injury, continuous pain can occur and last for many days. For the abnormal pain after tooth extraction, in addition to analgesia, it should be treated according to the etiology.

After tooth extraction, under normal circumstances, the clot can be formed after about 20 minutes by tampon compression, but within 24 hours, there will be a small amount of bleeding in the tooth extraction wound, showing a small amount of blood in saliva, which is a normal phenomenon. If there is still obvious bleeding after several hours, it is called abnormal bleeding after tooth extraction. The causes of bleeding are systemic factors and local factors. For the bleeding caused by systemic diseases with reduced blood coagulation, special treatment should be carried out according to the cause. If necessary, a small amount of fresh blood and procoagulant can be infused for many times. At the same time, local hemostatic treatment must be carried out, and local hemostatic powder and hemostatic agent can be used.

Due to the rich blood supply and strong anti infectivity in oral and maxillofacial region, postoperative acute infection rarely occurs. However, when the local inflammation of the affected teeth is obvious, especially when the surgical trauma is large, the operation time is long or the patient's general condition is low, postoperative bacteremia, perimaxillofacial cellulitis, and even sepsis can occur. Patients with rheumatic heart disease can develop bacterial endocarditis. We should check carefully and grasp the indication of operation strictly; Anti infection measures should be taken in time after acute infection.
