Question:
Wisdom tooth pulled today... and i just brushed my teeth WITH toothpaste.....?
i realize that i shouldn't have. will i develop dry socket? =*(
Answers:
Dry sockets aren't caused by toothpaste so don't be concerned with that. You need to keep your teeth clean so keep using the paste. If you get a dry socket it's more than likely from not following your doc's directions regarding stopping the bleeding and then not smoking, no carbonated beverages, etc. Even then, folks get dry sockets and we don't really know why.
