wisdom tooth question?!
Question: Wisdom tooth question?
also, i read my aftercare guidelines and it said when u get dry socket, it'll occur about 2-3 days afterwards. so if i get dry socket (which im trying hard not to) will it take that long to know it? thanks for the help!
and if u know anything i could eat bc im starving?? i seem to choke on chicken noodle.
Answers:
The holes will seep blood for a few days until the skin starts to fuse back together. Try not to keep packing then with gauze though cause it will hold old blood in the back of the holes and the blood cells will start to die and the bacteria in your mouth will feed on the blood possibly causing infection. I spit and swallowed blood for a week till it subsided so don't worry its normal. I was temped to eat everything but quickly learned ice cream was my best friend even when i got tired of it. Trying to eat anything solid or with solids cause be very bad cause the food particles can collect in the holes and the bacteria feeding on it will again cause infection.
