Teeth pain after wisdom teeth extraction
Hello
Recently I did go through wisdom teeth extraction of left bottom side teeth.
It's been more than 15 days now.
But I have pain in left side teeths n head ache only left side.
Doctor says it's common because the root of the adjacent teeth is exposed so it's creating that. Other than pain I don't have any infection nor swelling.
What to do now

Hi lower wisdom tooth extractions especially if the tooth is inside the bone , after extraction takes time to heal. Yes exposure of the adjacent tooth root can cause pain and severe sensitivity. Make sure there is no food accumulation in that area.
Next Steps
Flush the area with either bettadine or warm saline rinses. Metrogyl dg forte gel can be used to apply , massage and close the socket region
