The patient does not feel any pain when the surgery takes place, as the patient is given anaesthesia during the procedure. Pain increases as the numbness wears off. Its strong pain can be felt not only in the jaw but also in the surrounding area. As a preventive measure, our dentists will write you a prescription and advise you on which medications to take first. Post-surgery pain may not be severe enough to warrant medication. Cold packs are also suggested to fight pain and resist swelling.
