Question: Question after wisdom tooth removal!?
Hi i got 4 wisdom tooth removed friday!. I feel good no swelling nothing feel normal!. But there is a problem!. I keep getting food stuck in the hole!. I use salt water 4-5 times a day after meals but the food is still there!. Should I worry about infection!? I do take antibiotics!. And when could I stop rinsing with salt water i am tired of always doing it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No this is normal, food will get stuck until the holes close up!. It's annoying but normal, as long as no pain or swelling develops from here on out just keep on cleaning them adequately and you should be fine!. And like someone else mentioned, a curved dental syringe does work well if your dentist will give you one!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
When I got my 4 wisdom teeth taken out, the dentist gave me this squirter thing that looked kind of like a syringe (!.!.or is that called a syringe!.!.!?)!. It sucked up water, and then I squirted it into the holes to get the food out!. I was supposed to do this every time I ate, even if I didnt feel anything in there, because little rogue peices could get in and cause an infection!.
I'm actually not surprised your dentist didn't give that to you, most people I know didn't get one when they got their teeth pulled!. But it worked wonders!Www@Answer-Health@Com

its okay!.!.i got my four removed and i was awake and the whole still hasntt disappeared completely after three weeks, i gave up after a while cause it gets smaller and rinsing is pointless!.!.but while its still open, just just rinse a little when u drink water after a meal or something!.!.i quit after like three days and im fine and yea!.!.just keep taking the meds ( i even skipped two times i was supposed to but made up for it and im fine once again :)))Www@Answer-Health@Com
