Dry Socket?!
Question:
Dry Socket?
I had all four wisdom teeth taken out last friday. My teeth are evry soar and i still cant open my mouth or eat many foods. Only one tooth hurts and I think it may have a dry socket. So far not even the medicine will cure the pain and its like a throb. Im not in tears or anything and its not effecting my slepp. Is it a dry socket? How can I help it if it is and how can i ease the pain?

The doctor gave me antibotics to keep out infection and i have been taking those as told. Could it really be an infection? The side that hurts was swollen more than the other also

Answers:
Chances are it is, especially if it's only one tooth. When I had mine out, they were better after a week....the bottom took longer to heal than the top. Go to the doc and get it checked - if it is dry socket it takes two seconds to make it feel better, and they'll put you on antibiotics.
