Can you use orajel on gums after tooth extraction?
You can, but it isn't recomended, because the surgery area is still sore, and putting stuff on there like that, could make it worse or infected because you aren't suppose to touch them for a little while. You should just take the medicine that your dentist prescribed to you. And for me, he gave me Loratab stuff, and I would take it in the morning, and if it still hurt then you are allowed to take Advil or Ibruprophen so they overlap each other so you feel better all day long. But i wouldn't recommend touching your sores with that stuff until you go and see your doctor and they say that it is okay, or until your stitches come out, if you had stitches.
