In the no-gauze group, in only 2 cases did 1 or both of the neuroradiologists report being able to see the primary tumor. Here, we describe and recommend the use of surgical gauze, a cheap and ubiquitous component of the MMS setup, as a means of preventing intraoperative bleeding into the patient's mouth.

If used as prescribed, a large majority of patients tolerate the medications well and go on to heal without consequence. If you find it difficult to open your stiff jaw 4–5 days after surgery, then stretching exercises can be used so you can open your mouth wider.If your oral surgery was not an extraction of a tooth, then you should follow the bleeding control instructions provided by our staff.

Using tap water or salt water, gently irrigate only the lower extraction site(s) once a day to remove any food debris that may persist after rinsing. Even if your jaw is stiff and sore, you must be consistent with eating bulky foods so your stomach can tolerate your medications.If the area still seems to be bleeding, bite down on fresh gauze or a wet black tea bag for 15-30 minnutes. If the bleeding continues after following these instructions, then bite on a moistened tea bag for 30 minutes.

They are honest and sincere with NO pushy sales and will sincerely discuss pricing without being condescending. We found that it was simpler to instruct the patient on how to place the gauze adjacent to the tumor.Survival analysis and risk factors for recurrence in oral squamous cell carcinoma: does surgical salvage affect outcome? The 2 × 2 inch size was chosen because it is large enough to distend the oral vestibule yet small enough to avoid soft-tissue distortion. If these prescriptions are needed for pain management, be slow in resuming the use of the prescription and try taking a lower dose to minimize nausea. Once you are no longer taking narcotic pain medication, you may resume your normal activities as you feel up to it. Ask a family member to chop up the foods into small enough pieces so you can eat them with a spoon and swallow without chewing.
