WHY CHOOSE US FOR YOUR WISDOM TEETH EXTRACTION?
Our team of experienced dental professionals is committed to providing the highest standard of care. We utilize the latest techniques and technology to ensure your procedure is as pain-free and efficient as possible.
Following the removal of your wisdom teeth, it’s important to follow specific instructions to ensure a smooth recovery:
- Bleeding Management: Immediately after surgery, bite down on the provided gauze pad to maintain pressure on the surgical area. Replace the gauze as needed until bleeding stops.
- Dizziness Precautions: Post-surgery dizziness is common. Sit up slowly and pause before standing to prevent falls.
- Activity Limitations: Avoid vigorous activities for 3-4 days and return to your normal routine as tolerated.
- Medication Guidance: Follow prescription instructions carefully. Avoid driving or operating machinery if taking strong pain medication.
- Antibiotic Use: If prescribed antibiotics, take them as directed to prevent infection.
- Swelling and Stiffness: Expect swelling in the first 24 hours. Use a cloth-covered cold compress for the first 36 hours, then switch to moist heat to reduce swelling.
- Dietary Restrictions: For 24-48 hours, avoid using straws, spitting, smoking, and consuming hot, spicy, or hard foods. Stick to liquids and soft foods.
- Oral Hygiene: Avoid rinsing or brushing on the day of surgery. Resume brushing gently the next day, and rinse with warm salt water three times a day for 7-10 days.
- Socket Care: Don't use the irrigating syringe for the first five days. Afterward, use it with warm salt water to clean the socket.
- Numbness Caution: Be mindful of temporary numbness in your lip, chin, or tongue, and take care while eating.
- Dry Socket Awareness: Watch for symptoms like throbbing pain and contact the office if you suspect a dry socket.
- Emergency Contact: Reach out to the office for severe pain, excessive bleeding, or swelling, and in serious cases, seek emergency medical attention.

I’m looking forward to the exceptional care demonstrated so far.


I had my surgery done in December 2023, and even now, almost 2 years later, Dr. Hotait continues to be incredibly supportive. He’s always available for checkups, answers any questions quickly, and genuinely cares about his patients long after the procedure is done. The quality of his work and his dedication to his patients are unmatched.
If you’re considering dental implants, Smile-Haus is the place to go. You won’t find a more skilled, attentive, and trustworthy doctor than Dr. Hotait!
