Will A Long And Tricky Wisdom Tooth Extraction Heal On Its Own When The Bone Can Be Seen?

I had a long & tricky wisdom tooth extraction yesterday (55 minutes and 2 dentist trying to get the last root out, later!) I am worried that already I have knocked the clot off, & can see bone. It hurts like crazy. Will it heal on its own? Am still shaking from it all ..

Hi,

Do not worry it can be dry socket. Visit your dentist from whom you got treated and he will give you dressings and please follow medication for 5 days, Amoxiclav625 mg (twice daily after food), Pan 40 (empty stomach morning), Zerodol SP (when there is pain).

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shobhamayee Baruah, Dentist
