Tooth Pulling..?!


Question:

Tooth Pulling..?

I had a tooth pulled on Friday. I had the normal pain and swelling which comes with pulling a tooth, but under my tounge in the inside of my mouth where the tooth was extracted I have a bit of swelling. I am not in any real pain, just the soreness from the pulling, but I had a tooth pulled before and never had swelling inside of my mouth. Did anyone ever have this before, and is it normal?


Answers:

I think it just depends on the area where the tooth was pulled. Last year I had to get both of the back teeth on both sides of my mouth pulled. Well, it didn't hurt at all and hardly no swelling. Now a month ago, I had to go back and get an other tooth pulled. It was one of those up front teeth(I think it's called a K-9), and it is still pretty sensitive. It's healing really slow. I think if you just give it time you should be alright. No drinking threw a straw and no smoking though. You don't want to get a dry socket. Those things hurt real bad. Right now, my wisdom teeth are growing into the spot where I had the first two pulled.
