how long should it take to heal????

Hi, sorry to hear about your pain..My husband had 10 teeth pulled almost a month ago and he is still in pain..He is preparing for dentures..He takes pain killers on a regular basis due to other issues but for his teeth he has been using heat (rice bag) or (heating pad) and sometimes ice...He has had some relief by doing this. He has also used Anbesol for the pain and that was a big help also.. The dentist said there really isn't anything they can do...Have you tried heat or ice? If you are still bleeding I would contact your dentist...That doesn't sound normal..Even with 10 teeth extracted my husband has had no bleeding....His next appoitment is in December and he should be fully healed by then...I would think that your tooth should have healed by now... I hope this helps....

Thats normal that its supposed to hurt. Maybe not the severe soarness though nd bleeding. you should probably return back to the dentist, not to see if you need stitches, but to see if everything went well and that nothing is wrong with your tooth. My advice would be not to do anything extreme but take the regular tylenol sence you cannot take any other sort of painkillers. If that doesn';t work and your dentist says everything was done properly and that all is well you should probably seek your doctor or maybe even a walk in clinic becuase if you are worried, then you should find out what is really going on. Hopefully all goes well, Best of luck beautfulmama6701!

hi go back and see the dentist,you may have a dry socket which can be painful,or some bone fragments which happened to me , after a while the fragments surfaced and were removed.but you should not be in so much pain,and being pregnant you certainly don't want any infections happening

I know what you mean. I have the same experience when I let the dentist clean my teeth, My mouth bled because of malpractice by that dentist. It took me a month before it finally heal

I am sorry to here that,but I don't think there's any good ways to avoid the pain.I think you should get more rest,and touch your tooth slightly.

I'm sorry about your tooth but i have a cavity in the further back part of my mouth. it hurts pretty bad. Do you think i need to have my tooth extracted? it's in some pain.

If the anesthetics given to you are correct, then there's no problem with that since it will heal already the day after your tooth extraction. I've never been into that procedure that took for a long time to heal, I think you need to visit the dentist again and ask them what should be done. But in my case, the dentist gave me some antibiotics after the extraction. Most of them told me to eat ice or ice cream to stop the bleeding and soring, but I hope that you do check back the dentist which performed the extraction..

I think its taking long time in your case. You shoukd again revisit the docyor to see if there is some infection or like that. He may change some medicines also. Hurry up!
