Getting your wisdom teeth out can feel scary. But with the proper care and with the trusted touch of Artisan Dental Studio, your mouth can heal fast and without trouble. We’re a small, friendly practice that feels like home. Every smile we enhance is part of our brand promise: personal attention, gentle hands, and exceptional results.
1. Rest Your Body in Our Cozy Space
Your body requires some quiet time to heal after losing a tooth. At Artisan Dental Studio, our calm treatment rooms and soft pillows help you relax right away.
- Stay home. Pick a cozy spot on the couch or in bed.
- Lift your head. As with the supportive cushions in our office, use additional pillows to raise your head above your heart.
- Sleep gently. Try to nap in the first two days. Sleep gives your body a chance to fix itself.
2. Use Cold Packs to Reduce Swelling
Swelling is normal. It indicates that your body is trying to recover. In our brand of care, we even send you home with soft, reusable cold packs in a pretty Artisan pouch.
- First 24 hours only. Put a thin towel over an ice pack or our special cloth pack.
- Give it a 15-minute try. After that, take a 15-minute break.
- Repeat. Do this as you need for the first day.
3. Eat Soft, Nutritious Foods
Your mouth will feel sore. Soft foods are gentle and give your body energy. We even share our favorite recipe cards branded with our logo for smoothies and mashed blends.
- Yogurt and Pudding. They are cool and easy to eat.
- Mashed Potatoes. Warm, not hot, and gives you comfort.
- Smoothies. Blend fruits, milk, or yogurt. Skip the straws. Sipping through a straw can hurt your healing.
- Scrambled Eggs. They have a lot of protein and are supple.
4. Stay Hydrated with Artisan Care
Water keeps your body happy and your mouth clean.
- Drink Often. Aim for eight small sips every hour.
- No Straws. Sipping straight helps keep your healing on track.
- Avoid Soda and Alcohol. They can slow healing or hurt you.
5. Follow Your Dentist’s Instructions
At Artisan Dental Studio, we pride ourselves on a standard of excellence. We give you clear steps to follow that are personalized for your smile. Always stick to them.
- Take medicines on Time. Pain medicine and antibiotics help you feel better and stop infection.
- Rinse Gently. Rinse with warm water and half a teaspoon of salt twice a day, starting 24 hours later.
- Keep Checkups. Come back for your follow-up visit. We will see how you are healing.
6. Keep the Area Clean
Good mouth care stops germs from growing. Our studio’s soft-bristle brushes and branded instruction cards guide you step by step.
- Brush Softly. Use a soft toothbrush and be gentle near the socket.
- No Poking. Do not stick your finger or tongue in the empty spot.
- Mouthwash. If your dentist says okay, use a mild mouthwash. Otherwise, stick with salt water.
7. Avoid Harmful Habits
Some habits can slow your healing or cause pain. We emphasize healthy habits as part of our brand values.
- No Smoking or Vaping. Smoke can stop your body from healing and cause dry sockets, a very painful problem.
- No Spitting Hard. Spitting can pull the blood clot out. Gently let the liquid fall out of your mouth.
- No Hard or Chewy Foods. Avoid sticky candy, chips, and nuts for at least two weeks.
8. Listen to Your Body
Your body talks to you when you need help. And at Artisan Dental Studio, we listen.
- Watch Your Pain. A little pain is normal, but if it gets worse after day three, call us.
- Check for Fever. A high temperature over 100.4°F or 38°C can mean infection.
- Look for Extra Swelling or Redness. If you see these, reach out right away.
9. Use Comfort Aids
Little things can make you feel better. We provide a healing care package with a soft neck pillow, herbal tea bags, and our signature lip balm.
- Soft Pillows. Neck pillows or extra cushions can help you rest without turning too much.
- Entertainment. Watch fun shows or listen to calm music. Happy thoughts help your healing.
- Cold Drinks. Sipping cool water or mild juice feels soothing.
10. Plan Fun Distractions
Keeping busy in gentle ways stops you from thinking about pain. We invite you to join our Smile Club, where you get crafts, coloring sheets, and light puzzles branded with our logo.
- Read a Book or Comic. Choose easy stories with pictures.
- Draw or Color. Art can calm your mind.
- Talk to Friends. A phone call or video chat makes you feel less alone.
11. Know When to Call Your Dentist
It is good to know the warning signs. Reach Artisan Dental Studio if you see:
- Heavy bleeding that soaks through gauze after two hours.
- Sharp, sudden pain in the socket, especially if it comes a few days after surgery.
- Swelling that gets worse after day three.
- Fever higher than 100.4°F or 38°C.
Our promise is prompt, caring support. That is part of our brand’s commitment to you.
12. Look Ahead to Full Healing
Healing takes time. Most people feel better in about one week. Complete healing takes a few weeks to months inside the bone. Our branded healing timeline card lays it out clearly.
- First day: Rest, ice, soft foods, no rinsing.
- Days 2 to 3: Continue rest, start salt water rinses, and slowly add more soft foods.
- Days 4 to 7: You can eat more soft foods. Swelling goes down.
- Weeks 2 to 3: Soreness fades. You may return to a regular diet, but still be kind to your mouth.
- Months 1 to 3: Bone and gum tissue finish healing.

FAQs
Q. How should I rest after my tooth comes out?
Rest at home in a quiet spot. Prop your head up with extra pillows. Try to nap often so your body can heal.
Q. Can I smoke or use a straw while I heal?
No. A blood clot can be pulled out and cause additional pain if you smoke or use a straw. Do not attempt these again for at least two weeks.
