How to sleep after wisdom teeth removal?

Honestly, after my wisdom tooth surgery, I couldn't sleep properly for days. It was really hard and I felt so miserable and helpless. Don't feel bad if you're struggling; it's a tough recovery. Just try to keep up with your pain meds and soft diet, it does get better.

Please, please listen to your dentist carefully. I once ignored some post-op instructions for a different procedure and ended up with a complication that took ages to fix. If you're really struggling to sleep or in severe pain, don't hesitate to call your dentist again, even if it's late.

Yeah, it's tough. Keep your head slightly elevated, helps a lot with the swelling.

See, the main thing after wisdom tooth removal is to avoid dry socket, which is very painful and will cost more money for treatment. Sleep with your head elevated, maybe two pillows. Also, make sure you take your antibiotics completely to avoid infection, varna aur dawai leni padegi.
