Dental question?!

Dental question?

I just had a wisdomtooth pulled yesterday..is it normal for it to still be sore and red going up the roof of my mouth? I also sore on the corner of my mouth from this. Should I call the dentist or wait? Does anyone know..it would be greatly appreciated.

I didnt have any meds prescribed to me.should I have?

The soreness you describe sounds normal. This may happen for the next week or so. I wouldn't think you need to call him unless the pain is unbearable. The soreness on the corner of the mouth is more than likely due to the pulling and tugging at the corner, from him getting the forceps and instuments into your mouth.

In my office we have a normal protocal for all wisdom teeth extractions, which includes prescribing antibiotics, steriods, and pain meds. We also give a rinse called chlorehexidine to use for about a week following the extraction. He should have at least given you pain meds.
