The Nasty Complications
We all have to face reality, and complications from dental extractions are possible. Here is a list with some short descriptions and remedies:
Infection: a host organism, colonizing on your tooth (yuck, I know). The orthodontist usually gives prescribed antibiotics in this case.Prolonged bleeding: if the bleeding continues past 48-hours, I think it’s time to go back to the orthodontist. Swelling: normal Nerve injury: caused by inadvertent damage by s surgical drill, possible permanent damage. See a doctor. Alveolar osteitis:a dry socket; a bone inflammation. Normally occurs 2-5 days after a wisdom tooth extraction. No treatment. You’ll just have to endure it, although there are some pain killing sedative dressing. See your orthodontist.
