Although wisdom teeth removal is a common procedure and considered safe, potential complications can occur. If you have any concerns following an extraction do not hesitate to consult with your dentist.
Key takeaways:
– Dry socket is a complication resulting from the blood clot from the extraction not forming properly or being dislodged.
– Symptoms of an infection include persistent swelling, increasing pain and a bad taste in the mouth.
– Some people may experience excessive bleeding and should consult their dentist with any concerns.
“You’ll need to be treated by your dentist for an infection; an antibiotic will usually suffice if the infection is caught early enough.”
