Dear somtimes a very small piece of tooth which we call it as root stays inside the socket accidentally or knowingly which usually may cause secondary infections and disturbs normal wound healing also and somtimes if the very small piece of root stays inside and u the consultant dentist does a good dressing and let u go it won't create a problem as the root piece automatically resorbs gradually, bt if the affected tooth which u r talking was decayed or infected and it ws almost hlf of the previous tooth thn u must go and extract the tooth within few days as u r getting severe discomfort at tht region as it might b a dry socket,
Next Steps
U must call ur dentist whom u hav gone to extract the tooth and tell tht u r getting severe pain and its difficlt to tolerate even though u r taking medicines bt those r nt working, its better to extract now,
