I had all my top teeth extracted and 4 bone grafts done 1 week ago. Immediate denture were put in right away. Experiencing pain still.. is this normal? Should i sleep with my dentures in?
Motrin 800 helps but am taking about every six hours to control it. I also take tramadol in the evening to help. This doesnt feel normal. Ive also started to have some discomfort on my neck and shoulder (same side) and discomfort to center of chest. Cardiac issue ruled out by ED so far (stress test this week). Appt to see oral surgeon In two days. Hoping to hold out until then!! I feel miserable!!
I had a bone graft done on 6.7...exactly a week later the sutures and membrane came out. I've been trying to keep the membrane in somewhat by holding it in place with a little piece of gauze, but that only works for so long. Since it's been a week since the procedure and post opp isnt scheduled for another week. Should I just watch the area for pain or try to get back in to see the dentist asap?
He apparently put more stuff in than normal. My gums are still swollen and have minor throbbing pain in them every time something touches the area. And one end of a stitch is detached and it hurts even more when it's touched. Brushing is painful. I have taken all my antibiotics. I don't know what's up or if i'm freaking out over nothing. Thank
8 weeks out from bone graft for a failed root canal. The graft is more painful than the tooth. Dr. Said it looks ok and pain should gradually ease. Now I have food lodged in it that I can not swish out. The food seems to be causing even more pain.
Two weeks ago I had one of my molar teeth extracted along with a bone graft in preparation for an implant. I developed a dry socket and that seems to have cleared up. I am still in quite a bit of pain, my gums, my jaw and what feels like my cheek. I take Advil a couple times a day for relief. I went in yesterday and was told all looks good, however it is healing pretty slow. Should I still be in this much pain and be uncomfortable?
Had #18 extracted Thurs d/t infection to side of tooth. Dentist removed(had to section it & root was curved), cleaned out cyst, grafted, sutured & placed goopy item: referred to as a membrane (collagen?) Collagen came off at 36 hrs & sutures now coming undone (84 hrs). Dentist told yesterday: peridex BID ordered. Pain in line w/ expectations until today. 650 mg Tylenol: ineffective. 325 mg Tylenol w/ 600 mg of Motrin: better. Going back to dentist tmrw. What should concerns and questions be?
Last Tuesday I got #2 and #20 extracted and bone grafts as well. Successful procedure. My stitches came out about 5-6 days later. I'm no longer in pain except for the gum on the inner side of #1. It feels kinda loose and flabby if that makes sense. It hurts because the swelling is making it go past that tooth so when I bite subconsciously it hurts. Is swelling next to the extracted tooth normal or is something wrong?
Extraction of root canaled upper molar which had broke and decayed. Bone graft and collagen plug. 4 days out and pain is getting worse. I'm on Norco 10/325, Tylenol 3 and ibuprofen 800 plus using ice pack. Dentist had a hard time extracting. Pain is mostly in my jaw and cheek area. Waking me in night. I did have bits of tooth or bone for 1 day but not since. Just bear with it for the weekend?
