Wisdom Tooth Removal in Almaty: Indications, Methods, Recovery

Third molars are the last to develop and often erupt with more difficulty than other teeth. The indications for surgery are determined by the doctor based on the X-ray and clinical picture: pericoronitis, caries with no access, pressure on the adjacent tooth. The method is simple or surgical extraction, sometimes with sectioning. Healing follows an individual timeline, and follow-up continues.

What determines the price

The cost of the procedure is determined by the position of the tooth, the difficulty of access, and the condition of the surrounding tissues. An impacted or malpositioned tooth that lies under the gum or is tilted toward the adjacent tooth requires more time and preparation than a tooth with fully formed roots in its proper place. At the initial appointment, the doctor performs an examination, orders cone-beam computed tomography if necessary, and draws up a treatment plan. The exact cost is given after the examination — it depends on the specific clinical picture.

By position

Types of wisdom teeth by position and condition

This classification helps to understand which variants of wisdom tooth positioning occur and what exactly the dentist evaluates during the examination.

Typical position in the dental arch

The tooth has fully erupted, sits in line with the rest of the arch and does not displace its neighbors. The roots are normally developed, and the enamel is accessible for cleaning. In this case, the dentist considers the possibility of treating it like any other chewing tooth rather than extracting it. The X-ray, the condition of the surrounding tissues and hygiene access are assessed.

Retained (impacted) position

The tooth remains in the jaw and does not fully or partially emerge into the dental arch. Using a CT scan, the dentist assesses the depth of impaction, the angulation, and the proximity to adjacent roots and the nerve canal. This variant requires a separate evaluation: observation, orthodontic intervention or extraction are possible — the dentist decides based on the scan.

Displaced (ectopic) position

The tooth has erupted, but with a tilt toward the adjacent tooth, the cheek or the tongue, outside the normal arch. It may press against a neighbor and interfere with hygiene. The dentist examines the direction of the tilt, the contact with adjacent structures and the condition of the enamel to determine what to consider in this case.

Stages of wisdom tooth removal in Almaty

Consultation: doctor and patient at a screen with an X-ray — illustration for the section "Examination and Diagnostics"
Step 01

Preparation and anesthesia

Before the procedure, the doctor studies the X-rays and clarifies the allergy history and concomitant diseases. Anesthesia is selected individually: most often it is local anesthesia, with sedation if necessary. Modern anesthetics allow the intervention to be performed without pain; during the procedure the patient is conscious and can signal the doctor.

Preparation: the assistant lays out sterile instruments, the dentist puts on gloves — illustration for the Anesthesia section
Step 02

Course of the intervention

The doctor detaches the gum, sections the tooth into fragments if necessary, removes them, and examines the socket. When working near nerves and the maxillary sinus, a microscope with 25× magnification and cone-beam computed tomography data are used. The duration depends on the complexity: simple cases take 20–30 minutes, complex ones up to an hour or more.

Step 03

Sutures and completion of the appointment

Sutures are placed when the gum is incised, when several teeth are removed, or when there is a risk of the socket edges separating. If the socket is small and the edges come together on their own, sutures can be avoided. At the end of the appointment, the doctor places a hemostatic sponge, gives recommendations, and schedules a follow-up examination.

Step 04

Recovery

The first 24 hours: rest, cold compresses as indicated, soft food, and avoiding hot foods, physical exertion, and smoking. Take painkillers as prescribed by your doctor. Swelling and soreness usually peak on the second or third day and then gradually subside. Stitches are removed on days 7–10 if they are non-resorbable. Complete healing of the socket takes several weeks.

Impacted and ectopic third molar: what's the difference

An impacted wisdom tooth has not erupted through the gum. An ectopic one has erupted but grows at an angle or sideways. These are two different conditions, and the surgery differs for each.

Tooth position in the jaw and surgical access

A fully impacted third molar is completely covered by bone and gum, and is not visible in the oral cavity. A displaced (ectopic) tooth sits in the dental arch or has partially emerged above the gum, but its axis of inclination is incorrect: the crown presses against the second molar, or is rotated toward the tongue or cheek. Hence the main difference for the surgeon is access. With an impacted tooth, the path to the crown goes through the thickness of bone, which is removed with a bur. With a displaced tooth, the crown is often already visible. But the inclination changes the anatomy: roots may extend under the adjacent tooth or come close to the inferior alveolar canal. Therefore, a CT scan is performed before surgery — it shows where the roots are positioned and how far the nerves run from them. There is also a mixed case: the tooth is both impacted and displaced. Then both factors combine, and planning follows a more complex scenario.

What changes during surgery

  • Access to the crown: with an impacted tooth, the crown is covered by bone, and the surgeon first removes a portion of it with a bur; with an ectopic tooth, the crown is often visible right away.
  • Direction of extraction: a tilted tooth is delivered along its own axis, not strictly vertically, otherwise the root hits the wall of the socket or the adjacent molar.
  • Working with the roots: with an ectopic tooth, the roots are often curved, and they have to be sectioned into fragments to be delivered one at a time without pressure on surrounding structures.
  • Adjacent tooth: if the crown rests against the second molar, it is first freed from the obstruction, otherwise the neighboring enamel can be damaged during extraction.
  • Suturing the socket: after an impacted tooth, the bone defect is larger and suturing is tighter; with an ectopic tooth, the wound is smaller but depends on the incision.
  • Anesthesia: the volume and type of anesthesia are selected based on the depth of the tooth and its proximity to the nerve, not on the diagnosis name alone.

What is a complex extraction: roots, septa, proximity to a nerve?

A complex extraction is when the surgeon cannot simply lift the crown with an elevator and remove it. The shape of the roots, dense bone, or adjacent structures get in the way.

When simple extraction is impossible

A routine extraction relies on the root having a predictable shape and there being room around it for instrument movement. If the roots are curved, fused together, or thickened at the tip, pulling the tooth upward does not work — it gets stuck. Then access is achieved through gum reflection and working with bone. A separate issue is proximity to the inferior alveolar nerve. It runs in the mandibular canal, and in some people the roots lie right next to it or even wrap around it. The scope of intervention and the choice of instrument here are decided by the doctor based on the scan, not on sensations in the chair. A CT scanner provides a three-dimensional picture: you can see where the canal runs and how much bone lies between it and the root.

Factors that complicate the operation

  • Curved or bifurcated roots: the instrument does not go in a straight line, so the socket has to be expanded and the tooth worked on in sections rather than pulled out whole.
  • Dense surrounding bone: in adults, bone tissue is more mineralized, and the elevator does not spread it as easily as in younger patients.
  • Thin septa between roots: they break under pressure, and a root fragment remains in the socket — it is located and removed separately under magnification.
  • Proximity to the inferior alveolar nerve: when there is a risk of nerve compression or injury, the surgeon changes the approach and pace of work, and sometimes refers for a repeat CT scan.
  • Inflammation around the tooth: swollen, bleeding gums are harder to detach, visibility is worse, and anesthesia may be less effective than usual.
  • Location near the maxillary sinus: in upper molars, the roots sometimes sit right against the sinus floor, and this is taken into account when planning the approach.

Wisdom tooth removal with ultrasound: the essence of the method, indications, advantages

Ultrasound does not cut bone blindly. It works precisely: where tissue needs to be divided, not broken by force. Below we will explain how this works, when the method is appropriate, and what its limitations are.

How the piezosurgical handpiece works

The handpiece oscillates at a frequency that the hand does not perceive as an impact. At this frequency, bone is cut, while soft tissues — gum, vessels, nerve — remain almost untouched. Therefore, when removing a third molar lying close to the mandibular canal, the surgeon can separate the root from the bone without rough pressure. The work is done under constant cooling: the solution washes away bone debris and prevents tissues from overheating. The incision is usually small. The bone around the socket is preserved better than when using a drill or chisel. The decision on the method is made by the doctor after examination and imaging: the CT scanner shows where the canal runs and how the roots are positioned. Sometimes the case is simple and ultrasound is not needed at all. Sometimes it is the opposite: only ultrasound allows safe access to the root. It all depends on the clinical picture.

What ultrasound does and what it does not replace

  • Bone separation: the tip passes along the root in a thin line, and the surgeon does not need to break out a whole section of bone to reach the tooth.
  • Working near a nerve: when the root rests against the mandibular canal, the method provides more controlled access, but the risk of nerve damage is still assessed by the doctor using the CT scan.
  • Preservation of the socket: the socket walls remain more even, and this is taken into account if implantation in this area is planned later.
  • What the method does not replace: anesthesia, gum incision, and suturing where they are needed. Extraction is not performed without them.
  • What the method does not replace: diagnostics. Without an X-ray and examination, it is impossible to tell whether the root lies near the canal or not, and whether ultrasound is needed at all.

Laser wisdom tooth removal: how it is used, what is different?

The laser in third molar surgery is an auxiliary tool. It does not replace the scalpel or elevator, but complements them at certain stages. Below is where exactly it is used and how it differs from conventional methods.

Where the laser is used in third molar surgery

The laser beam acts on tissue in a targeted way. In third molar surgery, it is used to incise the mucosa over an impacted tooth when precise access without a wide incision is needed. The second application is hemostasis: the beam cauterizes small vessels in the socket, and bleeding stops faster than with conventional packing. The third is wound treatment after extraction: the beam removes infected tissue at the margins, which reduces the risk of inflammation. The fourth is excision of the operculum over an erupting tooth in pericoronitis. A separate topic is intervention in pregnant patients: the laser causes less trauma to soft tissue, but the decision is made by the doctor after examination and taking the stage of pregnancy into account. The matter is discussed with an obstetrician-gynecologist, not only with the dentist. The laser does not speed up healing by itself — the outcome depends on the clinical picture.

Wisdom tooth removal in adolescents: indications and age restrictions

In adolescents, the third molar is more often removed before the roots are fully formed. The decision is made based on imaging and the clinical picture, not on chronological age.

When there are grounds for surgery in an adolescent

Grounds arise when the third molar crowds the adjacent teeth or cannot erupt on its own. At this age the roots are still growing, so the operation is technically simpler than in an adult: there is no dense fusion with bone, and there is less risk of damaging the inferior alveolar canal. But there is no need to rush. If the tooth germ is positioned straight, the gum above it is calm, and the orthodontist does not plan to move the adjacent teeth, it is simply monitored. A different matter is impaction with pressure on the second molar: in that case, the roots are allowed to form to at least two-thirds and then the tooth is removed. Orthodontic treatment is a separate reason. Before placing braces, the third molar is sometimes removed so that it does not shift the arch and does not interfere with closing the spaces. Indications are always individual: one adolescent has the tooth removed at fourteen, another keeps it until eighteen or longer. The doctor decides after a CT scan.

What is considered before the procedure

  • Stage of root formation: in a teenager the roots are still open, which makes extraction easier but requires precise planning based on the CT scan.
  • Position of the tooth germ: the tilt, depth, and proximity to the mandibular canal determine the access and the instruments the surgeon will use.
  • Condition of adjacent teeth: if the second molar is already displaced or its root is damaged, the approach is changed in favor of earlier surgery.
  • Orthodontic plan: the braces dictate whether the third molar is needed as an anchor or is better removed before treatment begins.
  • General health: chronic conditions, allergies, and medications are discussed with the pediatrician or relevant specialist in advance.
  • Psychological readiness: the teenager must understand what will happen, otherwise the procedure is postponed or performed under sedation.

Wisdom tooth removal in hospital: when is inpatient admission required?

Most often the third molar is removed in the dental chair. But there are cases when the doctor mentions the hospital in advance: outpatient conditions are not sufficient. Let us look at what exactly falls into these situations.

Situations discussed with hospitalization

  • Deep position: the root lies within the bone close to the mandibular canal, and manipulating it in the chair is risky — you need extra room for visibility and time.
  • Concomitant diagnosis: bleeding disorders, decompensated diabetes mellitus, a recent heart attack — such conditions require monitoring by an anesthesiologist and an internist.
  • General anesthesia: if the patient cannot tolerate local anesthetics or is terrified of the procedure, surgery is performed under general anesthesia, which requires a hospital setting.
  • Large focus of inflammation: phlegmon, abscess, osteomyelitis — the pus is first incised and drained, and the tooth is removed after the process subsides.
  • Multiple extractions: when several complex teeth are planned for removal in a single session, the scope of the procedure and blood loss are greater than usual.
  • Pregnancy: in late stages or with a threat of miscarriage, the decision is made together with an obstetrician-gynecologist, sometimes with 24-hour monitoring.

Why outpatient care is sometimes not enough

In the dental chair, the surgeon is limited in time and in the means of monitoring. There is no anesthesiology service, no blood supply, no possibility of keeping the patient under observation for twenty-four hours. If the root extends under the inferior alveolar canal or into the maxillary sinus, displacement of the instrument risks nerve damage or an opening into the sinus. In hospital, an anesthesiologist is on duty nearby, round-the-clock diagnostics are available, and observation can be extended after surgery. The decision to hospitalize is not made by one doctor alone: the surgeon discusses the case with the internist and the anesthesiologist, evaluates the cone-beam CT data, comorbidities, and the extent of the procedure. Sometimes one day is enough, sometimes the patient stays longer — it depends on the clinical picture. A separate note on patients with arrhythmias or those taking anticoagulants: medications must not be stopped on one's own, the regimen is prepared by the treating physician. It also happens that after examination and imaging the need for hospitalization disappears — then the operation is performed as usual.

Why a wisdom tooth can grow horizontally and what to do about it

The third molar develops last, when there is already little space in the jaw. It looks for a way out and sometimes ends up lying on its side. Let us look at what this threatens and how surgeons handle it.

How a horizontal position affects the adjacent tooth

The wisdom tooth lies with its crown facing the second molar and presses against its root or neck. A gap remains between the teeth where plaque accumulates. Cleaning this area with a brush is nearly impossible. The gum above the second molar becomes inflamed, causing pain when chewing, swelling, and sometimes bad breath. Gradually, decay forms on the neighboring enamel — it develops silently, from the root side, and is only detected on an X-ray. The root of the second molar may partially resorb under constant pressure. Then both teeth are at risk, not just one. If a woman is pregnant, the decision is made separately: extraction during pregnancy is performed only for urgent indications and in the second trimester. In other cases, the doctor first assesses the condition of the second molar and only then discusses the approach.

What the surgeon suggests for this position

  • Examination and imaging: cone-beam computed tomography shows how the roots are positioned relative to the mandibular canal and the sinus, and in which direction they are angulated.
  • Decision on the wisdom tooth: if the adjacent tooth is still intact, it is preserved; if the root is destroyed, the decision is made on a case-by-case basis, depending on the clinical picture.
  • Tooth sectioning: the crown is divided into parts so it can be removed through a small access rather than pulled out whole.
  • Working near the nerve: when the canal is close, the surgeon works under a microscope at 25× magnification and controls every movement.
  • Suturing the socket: the gingival edges are brought together so the blood clot stays in place and food does not get into the wound and interfere with tissue healing.
  • Follow-up: the doctor schedules a check-up; the timing depends on how the tissue heals and on how the patient feels.

What equipment is used for diagnosis and removal of wisdom teeth

Diagnosis of third molars relies on imaging, and the procedure itself relies on a set of instruments. Below we will discuss what is used at each stage and why each device is needed.

Preoperative imaging: panoramic and volumetric

MethodWhat it showsWhen it is needed
Panoramic radiographAll teeth, roots, and the entire jawInitial assessment of position
Periapical radiographA single tooth and the surrounding tissuesClarifying root details
Cone-beam computed tomographyA three-dimensional view in three projectionsProximity to the nerve, septa
Intraoral scannerA digital model of the dental archPlanning and monitoring

Instruments during the procedure

  • 25× magnification microscope: provides the doctor with a magnified view of the surgical field, helping to distinguish fine structures at the root and near the nerve, without replacing imaging.
  • Laser: used for working with soft tissues; the decision to use it depends on the clinical picture and remains at the doctor's discretion.
  • Ultrasonic device: a tip with an attachment fragments dense bone around the root, reducing stress on adjacent structures in cases of difficult access.
  • Class B autoclave: sterilizes instruments before the procedure; processing requirements are especially strict when the intervention is performed during pregnancy.
  • Set of elevators and forceps: the main hand instruments for root extraction, selected according to the shape and position of the tooth.
  • Suture material: closes the socket after the intervention; the type of thread and the need for sutures are determined by the surgeon based on the situation.

What to remember

The decision is made based on the X-ray and clinical findings

The choice of method is based not on the name of the tooth, but on CT data and examination. Cone-beam CT shows the position of the roots, bone thickness, and the course of the inferior alveolar canal. An intraoral scanner records the relief of the gum and adjacent teeth. A microscope with 25× magnification helps the surgeon see small structures in the wound. Without an X-ray, risks cannot be judged: the root may be right next to a nerve or extend into the maxillary sinus. In that case, a bypass approach is planned rather than direct extraction. The clinical picture also changes the scope of the procedure: one tooth is removed whole, another is cut into fragments. The doctor decides after examination and review of the images. The patient has the right to ask questions and discuss alternatives beforehand. Rushing does not help here: a planning error costs more than the time spent on diagnosis. If the case is controversial, it is reasonable to pause and get a second opinion.

Recovery follows an individual timeline

Healing times depend on the clinical picture, not on the method. In one patient, swelling subsides in a couple of days; in another, it lasts longer. This is influenced by the position of the tooth, bone density, the extent of the procedure, and general condition. Some return to their usual routine quickly; others need a gentler regimen. The doctor provides guidance during the examination; there are no universal numbers. In the first 24 hours, cold and rest help; afterward, soft food and hygiene as instructed. Painkillers are taken as prescribed, not out of habit. Alcohol, smoking, and hot foods slow healing, so they should be avoided. Sports and flights are postponed until the tissues settle. If something does not go as expected, it is better to call the clinic rather than wait.

When a follow-up examination is needed

The follow-up visit is scheduled in advance, and it is not a formality. The doctor checks how the socket is healing, whether there are signs of inflammation, and how the sutures are holding. Sometimes an X-ray is needed to confirm there are no fragments. A reason to come outside the schedule is pain that intensifies instead of subsiding. Swelling that increases after several days, fever, bad breath, or bleeding that does not stop should be concerning. Numbness of the lip or chin, if it does not go away, also requires examination. Early contact simplifies correction: sometimes it is enough to rinse the socket and change the dressing. Advanced conditions are harder to treat, so signals from the body should not be ignored. You can schedule a follow-up appointment during the clinic's regular hours.

Frequently asked questions about wisdom tooth removal in Almaty

The price of wisdom tooth removal depends on the complexity: a simple extraction is less expensive, while a surgical extraction with a gum incision and sectioning of the root costs more; anesthesia and X-rays are charged separately. The final amount is quoted by the doctor during the examination, after seeing the position of the tooth on the tomogram — it is not given over the phone in advance. For general guidance on all services, see the pricing section on this page. The initial consultation and treatment plan at our clinic are 0 ₸, and payment can be split into an installment plan for 24 months with Alatau City Bank or 12 months with Kaspi.

Elective wisdom tooth removal in pregnant patients is preferably performed during the second trimester, when the fetus's major organs are already formed and uterine tone is lower; during the first trimester, the procedure is postponed unless there is severe pain, swelling, or a purulent process. Searches for "extracting a tooth during pregnancy" and "tooth removal in the first trimester" describe the same situation: the decision is not made by the dentist alone, but together with the obstetrician-gynecologist managing the pregnancy. If the tooth is severely damaged and there is a risk of sepsis, it is removed even in early pregnancy — under local anesthesia approved for use during pregnancy, without high doses of adrenaline. Before your visit, inform the doctor of your stage of pregnancy and any medications you are taking.

Stitches are not always placed: for a simple extraction, when the socket is not damaged and the gum closes on its own, the surgeon may do without them. Stitches are needed for a complex extraction — if the tooth is impacted, the gum was incised, the roots were sectioned, or the socket remains wide; in that case, the tissue edges are brought together so the blood clot is not washed out and the bone heals evenly. Stitch removal is usually scheduled a few days later; it is a quick and painless procedure. The exact plan depends on an X-ray and the surgeon's examination: a cone-beam CT scan at the clinic shows the position of the roots and their proximity to the nerve.

Under the OSMS, wisdom tooth removal may be free of charge if it is included in the list of services covered by a referral from the polyclinic you are registered with — but waiting times and restrictions based on complexity often make this route lengthy. At a private clinic, the service is paid, and the price depends on the complexity of the extraction: simple or surgical, the position of the tooth, and the need for tomography and anesthesia. The final amount is quoted by the doctor during the examination after the X-ray; for general guidance, see the pricing section on this page. The initial consultation and treatment plan at our clinic are 0 ₸.

If a wisdom tooth has not erupted and is growing under the gum, it is called impacted or ectopic, and the decision to remove it is made based on an X-ray: a cone-beam CT scan shows which way the roots are angled, whether the tooth is pressing on the adjacent tooth, and whether it is touching the nerve. Such a tooth may cause no problems for years, but sometimes it causes inflammation of the gum flap, pain, and displacement of neighboring teeth. If swelling, fever, or pain when chewing appears, do not wait — see an oral surgeon. At our clinic, surgical procedures are performed by Rustam Sagitov, Ayaulym Nurpeis, and Nurlan Zhumabekov.

The extraction itself is performed under local anesthesia, so there is no pain during the procedure — you only feel pressure and the movement of the instrument. After the intervention, the socket heals gradually: swelling and aching pain are possible in the first days, which are relieved by prescribed medications, while complete bone healing takes weeks. To avoid washing out the blood clot, do not rinse your mouth, apply heat to your cheek, or eat hot food during the first 24 hours. If the pain intensifies instead of subsiding, or if you develop a fever, come in for an examination.

A wisdom tooth is removed not because of pain, but because of risk: an impacted or tilted tooth presses on the adjacent tooth, destroys its root, interferes with hygiene, and provokes inflammation of the gum flap. Sometimes it causes no trouble for years, but an X-ray shows that the adjacent tooth has already shifted or begun to decay — in that case, removal prevents more serious treatment. The decision is made after an examination and a CT scan, not based on sensation alone. If the tooth is healthy, fully erupted, and not causing problems, it can be left under observation.

Yes, removing two wisdom teeth in one appointment is practiced if they are located on the same side of the jaw — this way you go through one healing period and one course of painkillers. Removing one tooth from each side at once is not recommended: you won't be able to chew, and swelling will affect both cheeks. The final decision is made by the surgeon based on the X-ray, assessing the complexity of each tooth and your overall condition. After the intervention at our clinic, you receive written aftercare instructions and a follow-up appointment is scheduled.

After wisdom tooth removal, you should not rinse your mouth during the first 24 hours, so as not to wash out the blood clot that covers the socket and protects it from infection. Also, do not apply heat to your cheek, take a hot bath, or exercise on the day of surgery — heat and physical exertion increase blood flow and provoke swelling. Do not poke the socket with your tongue or touch it with your fingers, and you can brush your teeth, carefully avoiding the extraction site. If the doctor prescribed antibiotics or painkillers, take them as directed, not based on how you feel.

Removal begins with an examination and a CT scan: cone-beam computed tomography shows the position of the roots, their tilt, and their proximity to the mandibular canal, after which the surgeon chooses the technique. Then local anesthesia is administered; for a complex tooth, the gum is incised, the root is cut if necessary and extracted in pieces, and the socket is rinsed and sutured. Our clinic uses class B autoclaves — all instruments undergo pressure sterilization, and surgical appointments are performed by Rustam Sagitov, Ayaulym Nurpeis, and Nurlan Zhumabekov. After the procedure, you receive recommendations and a follow-up examination date.

The extraction took about twenty minutes. They called the next day to ask about the swelling — a small thing, but it was nice. The swelling lasted two days and went down; I have no complaints. I think the reason is that no one here rushes you. Parking is in the courtyard, and I found a spot. Sterility is visible — the instruments were opened in front of me. The socket was stitched, and the bleeding stopped quickly. Shoe covers, a cup, a napkin — small things, but everything was there. They scheduled me for a convenient time, without "come at nine and wait" — I'll note that separately. The hallway doesn't smell like a hospital, but like something neutral. They messaged me the next day to ask how I was feeling.

The extraction took about twenty minutes. Not painful at all. The room is bright, the equipment is new, no complaints there. By the third day I had already forgotten about it. They messaged me the next day to ask how I was feeling. Shoe covers, a cup, a napkin — small things, but everything was there, just as agreed. Parking is in the courtyard, I found a spot, thanks for that too. Sterility is out in the open, the instruments were opened in front of me. The contract and receipt were provided without me having to ask, no complaints there.

It got to the point where I couldn't sleep at night. It was quick. The tooth was removed, and he patiently answered my questions. Rustam answered my questions!

Had my lower wisdom tooth removed; waited a bit longer for my appointment — but that's just me being fair (I asked twice). Not painful at all. The room is bright, the equipment is new. In my opinion, the main thing is that they don't pressure you into a decision.

The extraction took about twenty minutes, they were quick, and the hallway doesn't smell like a hospital but of something neutral, no complaints about that. The swelling lasted two days and went down, and that's the main thing.
