Wisdom pulled, still in PAIN

health advisory Hospital Dentists Yu 2007-11-11 18:18:50

It has now been 3 days. The pain is worse than the day I got them pulled. I have sharp pain in my cheek, jaw is throbbing and neck hurts? I finally couldn't take it anymore and went to ER yesterday. Doc barely looked at it, sent me home with 6 tramadol and told me to go to dentist today. I am afraid because I had soooo much pain before I had them removed, he gave me 3 scripts for painkillers, he will think I am just drug seeking. I know I'm not crazy and this is not normal. Has anyone else gone through this? The only thing that even makes it bearable is 3 xtra strength tylenol and 1 tramadol. I am a grown woman sitting here crying not sure what to do.

Answer:

it sounds like there could be an infection. did they look into this? but, wisdom teeth arein the vicinity of a lot of nerves and it may just take time to calm them down. it can be quite a trauma to the jaw. when this all calms down, be sure to go to a biologic dentist and have the cavitations done, so you don't end up in worse shape later. it is not painful like getting teeth pulled.

CAVITATIONS

A cavitation is an unhealed hole in the jawbone caused by an extracted tooth [or a root canal or an injury to a tooth]. Since wisdom teeth are the most commonly extracted teeth, most cavitations are found in the wisdom tooth sites. Please see the graphic and photo below to get a glimpse of what may be in your mouth and the effects it is having. The photo and diagram demonstrate the destructive and pathologic consequence of a routine tooth extraction. Dentists are taught in dental school that once they pull a tooth, the patient's body heals the resulting hole in the jawbone. However, approximately 95% of all tooth extractions result in a pathologic defect called a cavitation. The tooth is attached to the jawbone by a periodontal ligament which is comprised of "jillions" of microscopic fibers. One end of each fiber is attached to the jawbone and the other end of the fiber is attached to the tooth root. When a tooth is extracted, the fibers break midway between the root and the bone. This leaves the socket (the area where the root was anchored in the bone) coated with periodontal ligament fibers.
