    Hard and painful to get partial teeth removed
    Hi everyone. I hope someone can help me. I just had partial tooth replacement done. I had immediately before they put them in had 2 extractions. Now it feels as if the partials are stukc to either the stiches or the site of the extractions and it hurts and is hard to get them out. Can anyone suggest something? Thank You, Sandy

    Sandy, don't try to get the partials out until the swelling goes down. They don't have to come out immediately. Rinse your mouth out with a mild solution of salt water, say l/2 tsp of salt to a glass of warm water. Irrigate your mouth really well and spit out, then repeat every l/2 hour.
