Dentist did the pulling lol i would never try to pull out my own tooth!
Answers:
The area around the pulled tooth is going to be sore for awhile. Did the Dentist give you oxycodone for the pain? Your tooth next to the pulled tooth may shift slightly since the impacted tooth was probably pushing up against it.
I would wait a few days to see if the pain goes away, if not, go back to your dentist.
