A common example of minor oral surgery is the extraction of an impacted wisdom tooth.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>These procedures are generally performed under local anesthesia, and patients can usually go home the same day. Recovery time varies depending on the procedure, but most patients can resume normal activities within a few days to a week.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>While minor oral surgery is generally safe and effective, there are risks associated with any surgical procedure, including bleeding, infection, and damage to surrounding tissue. Patients should discuss the risks and benefits of any surgical procedure with their dentists before undergoing treatment.<\/p>\n<div id=\"gtx-trans\" style=\"position: absolute; left: -38px; top: 34.3984px;\">\n<div class=\"gtx-trans-icon\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\n<style>\n#row-1668960590 > .col > .col-inner {\n  padding: 24px 24px 24px 24px;\n  background-color: rgb(250, 250, 250);\n  border-radius: 12px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_1244910043 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n  padding-bottom: 30px;\n}\n#section_1244910043 .ux-shape-divider--top svg {\n  height: 150px;\n  --divider-top-width: 100%;\n}\n#section_1244910043 .ux-shape-divider--bottom svg {\n  height: 150px;\n  --divider-width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n\t<section class=\"section\" id=\"section_2105357121\">\n\t\t<div class=\"bg section-bg fill bg-fill bg-loaded bg-loaded\" >\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\n\t\t<div class=\"section-content relative\">\n\t\t\t\n\n<div class=\"row align-equal align-center\"  id=\"row-1207646887\">\n\n\n\t<div id=\"col-193213509\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\" style=\"background-color:rgb(250, 250, 250);\" >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Tooth Extraction Aftercare<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Please keep the gauze with some pressure for 0.5 to 1 hour after the extraction<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If bleeding persists after removing the gauze, replace it with a new piece of gauze for another 1 hour until it stops<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take medications as directed<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid rinsing your mouth or spitting vigorously in the coming 3 days to prevent the blood clot from dislodging<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid brushing directly over your extraction site 2 to 3 days after extraction<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid licking the wound<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do not eat any solid food if the effect of anesthesia persists<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid hot, stimulating, crunchy, hard or tough foods<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid using straws and smoking<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><em>Should you have any enquiries, please contact us at 2889 5633 (Mei Foo) or 2889 7108 (Yau Ma Tei) .<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"gtx-trans\" style=\"position: absolute;
