Kratom for tooth extraction

Tooth extraction is a very painful process that involves the removal of a tooth from a tooth socket through very minor surgery. The pain involves in tooth extraction makes the process slightly difficult for the patients. Several people want to get rid of the tooth extraction pain. Dental surgeons use different types of sedative drugs and painkillers to numb the area around the tooth cavity during tooth extraction, so the patient feels minimum pain. However, these drugs have serious side effects like addiction and dependence. They also work for only a limited period of time, after which the patient starts feeling pain again.

Kratom can be a good natural solution for tooth extraction pain. It is a natural analgesic just like opioid drugs (opium) but without any side effects.

Being a strong analgesic, it provides relief from tooth extraction pain in a matter of few minutes. But how does Kratom work for tooth extraction pain?

How Does Kratom work for tooth extraction pain?

Kratom contains several alkaloids that are known to relieve pain. The major ingredient of Kratom is an alkaloid called Mitragynine. When it is consumed, the body converts it into an effective analgesic alkaloid knows as 7-Hydroxymitragynine. An analgesic is described as a chemical that helps in pain relief within the body. When you take Kratom, your body process in a way that products strong pain-relieving effects.

7-Hydroxymitragynine is able to interact with the opioid receptors present in the brain. These opioid receptors are responsible for pain reception. After binding with 7-Hydroxymitragynine, these receptors stop transferring pain signals to the CNS (Central Nervous System) and the body starts feeling relief from pain. According to the users, if Kratom is consumed before or after tooth extraction, it can provide relief from tooth extraction pain.

The effects of Kratom are of two types according to the amount of dosage consumed. If you take a high dosage of Kratom, it will work as a sedative. On the other hand, if you take a low dosage of Kratom, it will work as a stimulant. So, a high dosage can be helpful in producing sedative effects which can be utilized during the tooth extraction process instead of numbness-producing medication. However, try to avoid so high doses of Kratom because they can impair your cognitive health.

How much Kratom should you take for tooth extraction pain relief?

Your first dosage of Kratom should be small (around 1-2 grams). If you feel positive effects with a small dose, increase it gradually until you start feeling maximum desired effects. However, in the case of tooth extraction, as the pain is intense, you have to a higher dosage of Kratom to get pain relief. So, in this case, you can take a high dosage (beyond 6 grams) of Kratom to very strong and prolonged analgesic effects. At high doses, Kratom will also start working as a sedative due to which you will feel less pain during and after tooth extraction.

However, at 6g dosage or beyond it, some users have reported nauseous effects. For this reason, we will not recommend the Kratom dosage above 12 grams.
