Follow up to Tooth Extraction

Years ago when I had wisdom tooth out, I had a dry socket. The surgery was done in June, then in December, 6 months later, I had a piece of bone come out trough the gum.
It was the worst dental experience I have ever had, the oral surgeon did not let it get numb before he started digging around and I literally 'white knuckled" the chair arms the whole time. An hour later it was numb.

If your ear is hurting, maybe a nerve was inflamed with the injection of "novocaine" or maybe you have an infection. Call the dentist.

The egotistical surgeon was very insensitive to my pain.
So sorry you are having such an experience.

My grandmother had a tooth extracted by her dentist. She felt something protruding from her gum and went back to the dentist. He took an X-ray and said everything was fine. Finally after months had gone by I took her to another dentist who could see and feel what she had been complaining about. I then took her to an oral surgeon who removed the entire root of the tooth. ( It looked like an eye tooth). I was tempted to take it with me to show her incompetent former dentist😊

Feel better soon.

Wow... I just groaned when I read what you are going through. I have no experience with this (thank God!), but just wanted to tell you I hope that you have a good outcome when all this is done.

No help here, but sending hugs~

My understanding is that bone pieces can be normal, since you are having pain though it is worth checking out.

Did they not give you antibiotics? That sounds like your next step if they didn't. But none of this sounds normal for a simple tooth extraction. Call the second doctor back TODAY and get the abx and some pain meds. Tooth pain the THE WORST, but once it's gone you should be able to resume your normal activities. Good luck.
