Swollen Hard Palate.
Had tooth extraction in my upper left teeth. The same day when my braces was adjusted. My ortho put springs inside the wire of my braces to create space. Now, after 7days. I've notice that my hard palate is swollen near in my extracted tooth. Though is not painful at all. It feels normal but im so worried why my hard palate is swelling. Is it because of newly extracted teeth and brace adjustment?

Slight discomfort  and changes are normal, happens during the process of ortho treatment. In case of intense pain and swelling you should consult to your dentist personally.
