What will happen if a woman has a tooth extracted during menstruation?

During menstruation, women will experience decreased resistance, physical fatigue and weakness, etc. At this time, women need to pay attention to various issues in life to prevent effects on the body. For example, many women will adopt the strategy of tooth extraction due to dental problems. However, tooth extraction during menstruation has a greater impact. Let’s take a look at what will happen if women have tooth extraction during menstruation?

During the menstrual period, due to the decrease in resistance, tooth extraction may cause bleeding or prolonged bleeding, so tooth extraction during the menstrual period should be avoided as much as possible. If you have had a tooth extracted during your menstrual period, you should pay attention to getting more rest, avoid fatigue, avoid staying up late, and avoid catching cold. If your gums are not bleeding or swollen, there is no big problem and you can take antibiotics for a few days to prevent infection.

Tooth extraction during women's menstrual period is extremely detrimental to wound healing and physical health. Not only will it cause bleeding from the wound, affecting wound healing, but it is also prone to dryness. During menstruation, the secretion of hormones in women's bodies leads to the destruction of blood coagulation function. Therefore, it is very easy for bleeding to continue after tooth extraction, leading to excessive bleeding.

Because women's disease resistance decreases during menstruation, their brains become slower to react and their self-defense abilities decrease, the bacteria hidden in the mouth are most likely to "make trouble" at this time. During women's menstrual period, the precursor activator of plasminogen in saliva increases and reaches its maximum value. When the tooth extraction wound comes into contact with saliva, it can destroy the blood clot in the wound and cause bleeding or prolong the bleeding time. Pathogens can easily invade and cause dry mouth disease.

As inflammation stimulates the alveolar bone, it releases activated substances, and the blood clot dissolves and falls off to form a cavity. The wound of dry socket heals slowly, sometimes taking up to half a year, and is often painful, causing great suffering to the patient. It can be seen that tooth extraction during menstruation can bring great harm to female friends. Therefore, female friends are reminded to avoid tooth extraction during menstruation. Before tooth extraction, they should actively inform the dentist of some of their own health conditions so that the dentist can understand and judge.
