I'm having my wisdom teeth pulled. Any post-care suggestions?

Answers:
Contact your local or state dental association and and see if there are any dentists who provide free or reduced cost care for low-income, disabled or senior patients.

Call your local health department and ask about health centers that provide dental care for free or on a sliding scale.

Go to a dental school, if there is one near you, for reduced costs.

Check http://www.toothwoman.net to see if low-cost or free dental services are available near you.

Check http://bphc.hrsa.gov and choose "Find a Health Center" to see if there is a low-cost clinic near you.

Check http://www.nfdh.org/DDS.html to see if your state has a "Donated Dental Services" program. D.D.S. is designed to locate dentists who will give free care to patients who are financially compromised due to medical problems. Not all states have D.D.S. programs.

Can I find dental whitening strips in a shop in Bangalore?

its an absess , pour peroxide on a good needle, and pierce the abcess and press out the puss, and rinse your mouth with listerine , keep doing this until the thing stops making more puss, like a week or so, but there is something wrong thats causing this so you will need to see a dentist eventually. i just lost a tooth to it recently.
