Post-Surgery Pain Management and Follow-Up Care

After surgery, patients can take painkillers according to their own pain situation. The recommended painkiller is lornoxicam sodium capsule, to be taken after meals, 60 mg (1 capsule) per time, three times a day, until the wound and surgical area are no longer painful.

Antibiotics are routinely taken orally after surgery, with amoxicillin or erythromycin recommended. Amoxicillin should be taken at a dosage of 0.25g per time, three times a day, for one week; erythromycin should be taken at a dosage of 150mg per time, twice a day, for one week.

Follow-up visits should be conducted after surgery. At the two-week mark, the stitches are removed and patients are asked to complete a questionnaire on bleeding, swelling, pain using a visual analog scale (VAS), and the dosage of oral painkillers taken. Photos are also taken. Follow-up appointments should be scheduled for one, two, three, and six months after surgery, during which the patient's soft tissue healing, buccal attachment width, thickness, and other clinical indicators should be recorded. Aoralscan 3 intraoral scanner should be used for 3D oral examination to collect aesthetic indicators such as color and shape, and photographs and digital images of intraoral scans should be taken.
