Food in Removed Tooth Socket?!

Question: Food in Removed Tooth Socket?

I had my wisdom teeth removed 5 days ago, and I have holes in the four places where the teeth used to be. The bottom ones are rather deep, and they keep collecting food every time I eat. I try to get the food out by rinsing with both salt and regular water, but some of it won't come out, and it's slightly irritating and feels uncomfortable. I'm also worried about the possibility of it causing infection. Any recommendations on how to get food out?

Answers:

You need to find a syringe with a narrow end to flush out the food, that's that I had to do, the Doc actually gave me the syringe. O and watered down mouth wash is a good thing to use too.

First of all make sure whether it is food or not.
It can be the stitches also. Sometimes stitches irritate this way.

And if you found that it is food indeed, then swish a bit vigorously.
Or VERY GENTLY brush it off.

And one more thing. You should not take solid food at this stage. Instead have very simple and liquid food.

If it still continues, go to a very good doctor.
