If the tooth is pulled out, the gums are sutured after extraction, and two problems need to be paid attention to: first, and the normal advice after tooth extraction is the same, such as biting cotton balls for 30 minutes, and eating warm, soft food after 2 hours. Avoid chewing hard food on the extraction side, eat soft food after 1 week, and perform dental prosthesis treatment after 3 months. Secondly, pay attention to the problem of stitches. If non-absorbable sutures are applied, the sutures should be removed 7 days after extraction. If absorbable sutures are applied, they do not need to be removed. They will be absorbed slowly in about 10-20 days. There are no other problems that need special attention.
