Wisdom teeth immediate aftercare

GET THESE ITEMS BEFORE WISDOM TEETH EXTRACTION PROCEDURE

Lots of sites will tell you about phases of recovery. This list is what you need right away.

Pen and Paper!! You will get lots of post-op instructions. It makes sense at the time, but it becomes blurry later. Take notes!

Multiple bags of frozen peas to be used in rotation as ice packs. I suggest 4.

Nutrient drinks (ex: Ensure). Pre-surgery you will have fasted. Later you will be hungry but possibly still numb. Drinking is easier. Also, you can't take some meds on an empty stomach, so drink something "substantial" with medicine to prevent nausea.

Someone to fill RX. After the procedure, you and the person taking care of you will be able to go home and get settled while someone else fills the meds.
