Taking Antibiotics After Dentist Sutured Cheek To My Gums After Removing Wisdom Tooth
I got my lower wisdom tooth removed. The dentist sutured my cheek to my gums without me knowing. I went back complaining if cheek pain. I discovered earlier that daily that my cheek was sutured to my gums. The dentist clipped the stitch. I now have a hard knot which is painful radiating to my neck, ear and temple. I also have been having heart flutter. I am currently on an antibiotic which I have been on since the tooth was extracted. I am worried about infection.
Hi. Many times the suturing has to be done . It is a part of wisdom tooth removal. Further medicines by the treating dentist will help you to ease with the problem you are facing.
