i don't know any solution for your pain but mabye a quick trip to the ER. Can you think of anything that you did that could have been a result of your possible dry socket? Hot food, drinking from a straw,smoking? The only thing you can do really is go to the emergency room and let them give you some pain meds and make sure your okay!

It really hurt when I had mine done and I went through a lot of pain meds and it was for a good cause.Don't be afraid to ask for more and be sure to clean your mouth everytime you eat so it don't get infected.Also drink lots of water,when your mouth hurts you tend to dehydrate from lack of wanting anything in there also the meds will dry you out.

Yes, it is normal to experience some sensitivity after this has been done! If the sensitivity persists, tell your dentist!

Get some ambesol. When I got my wisdom teeth it itched instead of hurting, and that's what I used. Apply it with a cotton swab so that your entire mouth doesn't become numb.

I went to a dentist with minor face swelling from an abscessed third molar emerging incompletely.  He pulled it then and there after some numbing and using some awful terror tactics.  I do believe he thinks he's House from the TV show.  Severe swelling in your face can restrict your neck, thus slowing blood flow to your brain or your esophagus, limiting your airway.  Both of which could be fatal if left untreated, I recommend lots of ice packs, not moving around much and NOT waiting for the pain meds to wear off before taking a new round.  Your tooth did get pulled didn't it?  I wonder why they didn't take it immediately?

Yeah it will probably hurt some, but they should give you some good pain killers! Also you might not be able to eat very well for a couple of days. I had jaw surgery where they broke my jaw and reset it and all 4 of my wisdom teeth cut out at the same time...talk about hurting.....:(

I know you don't want to hear this, but you must see a dentist.  You prob. have an abscess that needs attention. Putting off treatment by a dentist can put your health in danger, as well as your life.  Not getting help now will only make it worse.  I have once suffered a toothache from a hairline fracture in a wisdom tooth.  It was over the weekend and I thought I was going to go crazy from the pain.  No amount of Advil, oil of cloves, or any other remedy is going to help when it get's really bad.  I would never wish this kind of pain on anyone. There is nothing you can really do externally to help keep it at bay.  You need to have the infected tooth either extracted or opened up to let the infection drain out to relieve the pressure.  You also need an antibiotic to help get rid of the infection.  Don't wait, go as soon as possible.

Cut down on sweet thing's and carry on taking the antibiotics and rinse Ur mouth with a mouth wash or salt water and it should sort it out.\n\nAfter UV had them out ask dentist 2 give u some strong pain killers and as soon as u feel a tingle that the anaesthetic is wearing off take the tablet's, that way they will start 2 work b4 Ur mouth is back 2 normal and Ur feel no pain.\n\nDrink warm not hot drinks and eat soft food and rinse Ur mouth out with warm salt water as much as possible.\n\nI've had 3 of mine out and had no bruising or swelling at all.\n\nGood luck :O)

Ok...I just got them today at 10:30 am and they felt really weird at first like my mouth was full. They felt really big. Also its weird closing your lips cause they are so dry when they take the lip separators out (So my advice would be to put on some chap stick or lip balm...) Its been about 7.5 hrs and they don't hurt yet. But they will tomorrow. Although I can feel them getting sore : (. I know that they will hurt very bad after adjusting appointments so I'm going to take Tylenol or Advil.\n\nGood luck with your treatment

Sounds like a pizza cheese burn or you ate something microwaved. Oh yeah I totally agree about going to the doctor if it's been a week. From my experience wounds inside the mouth, even burns, should heal very quickly. Perhaps you've got an infection? (OMG Nicole, you cracked me up! I hope your mouth feels better soon - I'm sure it will - that's not too serious)

If your dentist refers you to an oral surgeon, then that is what you should do.\n\nThere are dentists who will knock you out to pull your wisdom teeth.\n\nIt really depends how deeply impacted your wisdom teeth are. i had it done while awake and I recommend serious drugs or twilight sleep because it was a TERRIBLE ordeal for me. They had to break my teeth before they could get them out. Dentists will refer you to an oral surgeon if your wisdom teeth are seriously impacted.

Getting your wisdom teeth out is NOTHING compared to the pain of them growing and crowding your other teeth!!   Bring something to clench that fits into the palm of your hands like a rolled up newspaper or a beanie baby...it helps to squeeze it when you feel anxious..I'm not kidding, it works!  You'll see!  Besides, it's gonna be a peice of cake, cuz I already said a little prayer 4 u.......

your making me think twice about getting mine pulled. i am glad i waited until after the holidays. it sounds like you could have an infection see your dentist,  but take some pain killers to hold you over until the holidays are done.

Yes, you could still get dry socket, altho the chance of it isn't as great anymore like the day or two after.  Give it a couple more days.  I wouldn't smoke or eat anything hard like chips.  You don't want to puncture what's there right now.

I wouldnt get too worked up, as its probably nothing.  My guess is that either you bit your tongue in your sleep last night or you have a swollen tastebud, neither of which are harmful and will go away on their own.

Dizziness and constipation are two side effects ov Vicodin.  Are you taking more than the directions read?  You shouldn't take more than three within a 24 hour period.  If you are in this much pain from having your wisdom teeth removed, from yesterday, you may want to follow up with your dentist ASAP.  There is a condition that CAN happen when you have an extraction called "dry socket" which is VERY painful!!\n\nJust know that wisdom teeth extraction is typically  painful.  It will just take some time, although please keep in mind, don't overdose on the Vicodin.
