Dentist did exactly what you’re talking about but failed to tell me I’d still have pain lmao. I want to … I just want to go to sleep for a long, LONG TIME 😓

Took my tooth out yesterday, woke up 10min ago in soo much pain it still feels like my nerves are angry as if I never took the rotten tooth out. I was so confused, thank you for this video.

Thank god this video was stress free. It cured my anxiety

What an excellent video. I’m in a ton of pain but having this broken down makes me feel better.

this is very helpful. a detailed explanation of dry socket. i just had a difficult extraction and developed dry socket. wish i saw this video earlier wouldn’t have had to withhold the pain for so long before i went back to the dental clinic.

This is the knly video which actualy talks about how long the pain from this condition lasts. Thank you!

This has been exponentially helpful. Experiencing dry socket after a traumatic removal. I have been on a high hormone birth control for endo and had no idea that could affect a tooth extraction. Going through hell trying to heal. This helped easy my mind about the process and give me some hope for a light at the end of the tunnel.

I have watched a million videos about dry sockets but this one explains it better than all of em. Best video ever. :)

Finally a helpful video on dry socket, I’ve been in agony for the past few days and has to wait out the weekend before going back. I had a wisdom and impacted molar pulled 4 days ago. Idiot dentist told me it’d be like this for 5 more weeks but all the information I can find is a few more days so I’m relieved to see that. Thank you for the information!

Bro. this guy said more information than my dentist said in the whole 3 weeks I’ve been seeing him ... (since my operation and dry socket) fml

The best explanation I’ve found. Your video has me thinking I need to go back to my dentist. Good job sir! 👍

I’ve been researching this for a few days and you are the only resource that explained it can go away on its own as long as you can manage the pain. Thanks.

I am currently dealing with a dry socket. My tooth was a difficult extraction so this explains the pain. The clot really never fully developed so by day 3 it was over the top radiating to the ear and eye. Thanks for explaining what you did. Either I was so uncomfortable from the broken tooth to begin with that I didn’t retain the info. I appreciate the thoroughness.

Best video ever!!! I have been in torture and my dentist was not great as explaining I started to believe he was not the best

Very rarely do I comment on a KZfaq video, but thank you so much. You have been so informative just even at a patients stand point and helped put a lot of fears and worries to rest. Thank you so much.

Excellent video and explanation of Dry Socket! I'm going to Subscribe to your channel and learn more! 5 days post extractions for dentures with 10 teeth removed, very sore but no dry socket and I suppose I'm in the clear at this point. Learning all I can about the process and I appreciate Drs. like you who share the info where laymen can access it! Bless you! An informed patient is a good patient.

It will get better on its own. Thank god. I’m dying from the pain of this but I have hope.. awesome video

After my surgery I loved that my doctor gave me a paper with all the things that I should or shouldn't do and the time schedule for those actions. Otherwise I think I would forget half of the things he said.

You are the only one who relieved my anxiety Thank you so much

This was so helpful!! I have dry socket and needed more information about it. Thank you!!

Thank you doctor, appreciate you for your valuable time.

Going through this now. I Take estradiol. Hum. Also, thought I was supposed to rinse vigorously to rinse out the oatmeal I’ve been eating for 5 days straight. So painful. I’m so happy my dentist was in today and saw me on Friday afternoon. I’m Better already.

This is the only helpful video I’ve actually found on dry sockets

Best explanation I have been able to find on the internet in the last 48 hours of pain. It is day 5 and Just knowing that this will start to subside on its own is the most beneficial to me as I don't have the money for continued care. Thank you for managing to care from so very far away 🤗💛

Thank you, I just got my dry socket packed on Monday and I was worried because last night I started feeling pain again, it was less, but same pain. It would have been nice for my dentist to tell me that after packing it, it wouldn’t be a forever relief but more of a temporary relief. Thanks for the video!

This is some real details thanks alot

I was recommended to goto an oral surgeon for 1 wisdom tooth. Got a dry socket and I was in pain from day 3-5 and I tried calling the office but my calls went unanswered (Friday). Let the weekend pass and showed up to their office first thing on Monday and they had the audacity to say “why didn’t you let us know sooner” I had a horrible infection and now I have to restart the process. Never going back there again.. Don’t wish this pain upon anyone

I just had a tooth extracted today, great doctor, but didn't really explain much and honestly I have learned more from speaking to others who have had this done and this video helped A LOT! I don't have dry socket as it was done just a few hours ago, but I am trying to do EVERYTHING I can to avoid this nightmare. I have been a pack a day smoker for nearly 6 years and I haven't had a single one since I left the office... I am about ready to slam my head through the wall but I figure the nicotine cravings must be better than dry socket.. not taking any chances. Thanks for the video, if I can survive this one, I got all 4 wisdoms coming on in July... I guess this is my practice run

This is exactly what is happening to me after my tooth extraction thanks for d great advice

One good tip, for anyone having to do an extraction to reduce the chances of having a dry socket. Have a deep clean done beforehand on the same day, by scaling and cleaning your mouth of tartar and plaque, it gets rid of a lot of bacteria which would otherwise affect the bloodclot, so this in essence will prep your mouth for the extraction. It will cost more, but will help to heal your extraction quicker and leave your mouth feeling fresh.

Thank you I just had a success teeth extraction wisdom teeth removal and had nitrous oxide and valium no problem was happy with the end result I am blessed 🎉

This was so helpful. Thank you!

Wow you are so good at explaining ! Thank you so much , I wish we had more teachers like you back in the university . Thanks a lot, greetings from Athens , Greece

Great information, it is useful to know that the pain will gradually subside in approximately 7 days. Also to know That it is a common complication from surgery, and it will heal on its own with growth over the hole. If one can deal with the pain using ibuprofen, no need to go to the dentist. Thank you, this is a great help!

This is really helpful, thank you Sir.

Thanks for this information i just had tooth extract an left with days of pains

Hey y'all clove oil was a life saver when i had dry socket and couldn't get to a dentist every couple days. Once i was diagnosed i got it cleaned out, kept it cleaned out and then used clove oil on gauze on it and its the only thing that touched the pain. Weird i know, but if you have a dry socket youll try anything desperately to relieve the pain. I tried this that someone told me and it worked. Now im sharing it anytime i see dry socket cause that was literally the worst.

Nice explanation thank you. I had 4 teeth taken out and one of them developed dry socket. I’m hoping I’m already well into the 7-10 day healing process..

God tier video subscribed for sure don't even care about teeth Sept had them pulled thank you

Never thought hands can explain so well 👍

Thank you, very helpful!

Thank you! I am 15 and got all four of my impacted wisdom teeth out last Monday. I started to feel pain about 3 days post op. I am now one week post op and am still in pain. I NEVER cry from pain and I think I cry now 3 times a day whenever my meds stop working. It was so bad I woke up at 3 in the morning for the past three nights in pain. The pain was so bad it would radiate my entire face to the point where I thought I was going to vomit. I’ve been taking my prescribed meds (which have now run out) and Tylenol and Advil. THEY DID NOTHING! Thank you so much for this video I go back to see my doctor in two days.

I ain’t gon lie. This is suicidal type pain. I ain’t never been suicidal until I had to deal with this. Thoughts every morning I woke up of putting a gun right through my jaw.

Currently dealing with dry socket on the left bottom side of my mouth. It’s day 9 since my wisdom teeth removal and I’m in a lot of pain. I’m going back to the oral surgeon tomorrow to get it checked out.

Amazing presentation. Subscribed.

Thank you so much for the information I got my tooth pulled on Monday and its Saturday waking up each day thinking it would get better being woken up by a pain I thought it was effected I was going to go to the ER I will try this but without the packing gaze . I been using Advil and its been helping manage my pain but I was worried because I was thinking as the days pass it would get better but I was still feeling pain thanks again for this video ❤

So helpful channel plz upload more videos

Very informative video...thank you

thanks for your detailed and clear explanation

Very nice vedio ✨ Thank you so much

Had a traumatic tooth extraction about 4 days ago - the tooth broke before it could come out in full .. 4days later and I still have pain in the site. A top molar pulled 1/8 and it’s just so painful. I hope it can be over soon.

Good protocol. Good video

One of the receptionist told me to put Clove oil on the dry socket. It does take some of the pain out but this condition is just flat out miserable! It works a little tho which is better than nothing!

Good stuff doc thanks

I smoke 6 cigarettes a day and after pulling my tooth I smoked 2. But your video gave me relieved about smoking not causing any damage to clot but avoiding is good in case.

Love you so much pain, I didn't know what to do...

Thank you for the Video.🤕

Wow this was great !

I got a extraction of a tooth and developed a dry socket that was worse pain than the toothache. So went back to dentist he packed my socket with gauge and medicine was on the gauge that he packed my socket with,that was painful also packing the socket,but after a few mins after he was done no more pain was in relief and no hurting. It works great packing the dry socket only pain is when he was packing my socket,its amazing medicine to use

i got my wisdom teeth out a week ago and have been so scared i was gonna get a dry socket.. i followed every rule though as much as it sucked not being able to eat and drink the stuff i love and my mouth has healed healthy :)

Great video. Thank you so much. I am healing from dry socket right now. I am about 5 days in from my surgery and the pain is slowly wearing off. I was considering asking the dentist for treatment, but you're video helped encourage me to wait and allow my clot to form instead

I don’t know if I have dry socket this is my third day and it’s still aching I don’t taste nor smell any bad odor in my mouth but I’m having anxiety having this because of the ache and the ache around the area because my dentist haven’t said anything what are the do’s and don’ts so I’m basically just searching online. I don’t smoke, didn’t brush my teeth really for a day after the extraction, did the cold compress and salt water, didn’t drink from straw and just eat porridge until now. Day 2 evening, that’s when I started to feel the pain, I’m going back to my dentist just to make sure.

Man I’m getting over mine good god why Dry Sockets are a thing is literally the worst I was dying literally for a whole week with that pain it was god awful I mean it’s still here but it’s not as bad as it was

Thank you 🙏🏻

Great video, thx

thank you for your help

Doctors need to stop relying on conversation to instruct the patient of what to do. Important details can be easily missed or forgotten especially when the patient is already managing pain and stress when they come in. The on paper directions my oral surgeon gave me don't even allude to the need to keep a blood clot in place. Just reading through it otherwise uninformed the gauze is just for stopping the bleeding and "dry socket" is caused by smoking. The instruction sheet never even tells you what dry socket is.

great video !

I bought this stuff called orca it’s for dry sockets and I cleaned it myself and packed it with the orca I couldn’t get to the dentist bc it was the weekend and that stuff saved me I swear

Excellent video...

Thank you so much! My procedure was so scary bc i woke up to them breaking my teeth and they even cut my lip with how rough they were getting it out, no wonder I'm in all this pain. Between that and the root they left (there was a reason) ive been miserable. Im calling a surgeon today but this is so helpful for me to understand what's going on!

That really help. Thank

Useful information

can you do a video on bone spicules after extraction

My first tooth I got a dry socket so I assumed they were all excruciating so I avoided going. Then I got my next teeth out and had no pain at all. So I felt with the pain

Great content very informational☝💯💯

Having dry socket right now, because of part of blood clot washed away a week ago. I took painkillers containing Diplofenak Epolamin three times each day and was rinsing my mouth with Baking soda mixed in warm water after eating and before sleeping. Baking soda and water mixture was especially good to ease the swelling and pain. Today is the first day that my pain is easing after a week and I did not take any painkillers.

My dentist had to drill on my jaw bone to get my tooth out for whatever reason and now even though I can't see a hole or a socket I feel like I have a dry socket. It was a week ago yesterday so this is the 8th day. Didn't feel the pain till about the 6th day. Rinsing with salt water and taking motrin . Hoping this will go away soon without having to go back and have him cut me open again.

Man I read the directions and everything since I was kind of numb so everything the dentist was telling me wasn't catching on. I was very nervous to begin with.

The most helpful video I've found! I'm just going to ride out the pain.

I had dry socket a couple times each time it downright hurt. When I had a dry socket went to my dentist where she put a paste in the socket. Then she had me come back like 3 days later so she can re-apply some more paste.

Thanks doctor

I went to a pharmacy and got a saline spray in a can, oral pain relief gel for dental pain and gauze, and told my cousin who has dry socket I think to wash with saline, apply oral gel, and cover with the a gauze for half an hour to let it absorb.. did I come up with the right treatment?

Thanks for sharing

Unreal pain, I had it took a solid 3 weeks to subside , pure agony, cudnt eat, cud not sleep, struggled to talk, went through boxes of painkillers like sweets, back to dentist 4 times, on antibiotics done evrything the said but this was torture. Was up during night with frozen peas on face. Anyone who gets this I feel for them.

Guy knows what he doin 🤙🏼

Thank you for your clear and informative video 🙂 So I'm on day 2, and I have unknowingly done all the things I shouldn't have : used a straw (to drink soup), smoked (only about 5 a day) and ended up spitting the clot out whilst trying to sleep thinking it was a bit of food stuf in there. Ive learnt I have dry socket with the symptoms of that foul saliva taste, smelly breath and swollen glands under my jaw and round my ear. I've been running with salt water and have put a fresh gaunt in then ringed my mouth with mouth wash to prevent that taste seeping through - seems to do the trick... But would that infect / irritate the gum?

very informative video doctor. may i ask, i had my wisdom tooth extracted last week today is day 8th, i removed the stitch myself as it was slight loose and easy to cut and then i saw inside the socket the alveogyl that my dentist had put. do i have to have it removed? thanks

Thank you for this info! I just had all lower teeth, and an upper wisdom and molar, extracted today. So, I'm bracing for dry socket(s). I have a question: Someone in the comments below suggested putting Clove Oil on a cotton ball or gauze. Do you think doing so might help??

Dealing with dry socket now. Oddly in my experience it was just a dull ache that radiated to my ear but it isn't severe pain. The dentist packed the socket which hurt at first but felt better over time.

I had a bone graft done immediately after extraction , shouldn’t that help ? Secondly , should I rinse the socket using a syringe ? If so would I use salt water ? Thank you

I did something like this- I was working a month long gig (no days off) and got my bottom right wisdom removed the day prior to my flight to my gig. I smoked, I ate crunchy things, then met my match on about day 4. Thank God my Dentist gave me tons of amoxicillin, Ibuprofen, and Tylenol, or I wouldn’t have been able to make it. I would clean the site myself by removing any food with one of those poke tools, and tweezers/ cotton swabs, and then rinse the site with salt water. I then would brush my teeth & I had medicated toothpaste at the time for my gums, so I figured it would help. Afterwards, I would rinse again and then squeeze oragel inside and packing wet gauze in the hole- following up with taking one ibuprofen 500 & one Tylenol 500 & amoxicillin. Slowly it got better, and then I realized the gums were healing/ closing. I feel no pain as of now (2 months later) but it definitely took about 16/17 days post extraction to finally have a 90% better sense of relief.

I got 2 top wisdom tooth extracted and the right bottom one also the bottom right on march 21 the bottom one was painfull first 4 days had to return to dentist found out i had dry socket he put a paste for pain in my hole now theres brown stuff in my hole so idk if its paste or food i rinsed with salt water but it dont come out i have no pain paste helped so much im just curious if its the paste in hole and if it is will it come out on its own ??

Dealing with this right now. What I'm really worried about is residual food debris. The pain is manageable, and I've only been eating 'solid' food once or twice a day. Otherwise it's yogurt or low sugar smoothies. I take ibuprofen, then eat, and by the time I'm done eating and giving my teeth a quick brush, that's when I grab my monoject to irrigate the food out of the socket. That way the medicine is fully kicking in by then. My worry is that it seems like I can never get all the particles out, there's always a little bit that doesn't want to lift out and clings to the interior. It waves around and looks like if I just irrigated harder it would flush out, but I don't want to be too aggressive on such a sensitive area. The roots still have clots in the bottoms of them and I'd hate to dislodge them. There's some exposed bone between the roots and I think that's what's causing the discomfort. For clarification, it's a lower first molar and the clot never formed properly and was almost completely gone by the third day. Everytime I would eat anything there was a little less there when I went to irrigate. For irrigation and mouth rinsing, I bought a 12 pack of 12 oz bottled water and use 1 - 1 1/2 tsp of fine table salt to create a clean saline rinse solution. Like I said, the pain is manageable. I'm just concerned about the residual food particles that don't want to come out. I may try using a tiny amount of hydrogen peroxide to water. I found this video very helpful. It made me feel better to know that it will heal on it's own.

Use clove oil and a cotton ball till ya can get it fixed trust.me it works!! Good.luck out there

I got my wisdom tooth extracted today and well I am terrified it might turn into a dry socket and looking into preventing it

Great video, very useful. First tooth extraction of top pre molar and yesterday The clot came away now I have a bad smell coming from the tooth but no pain other than general feelings of the tooth extraction. After being able to photograph it I’m noticing a white pus with smell in the socket so I can only imagine is infection :( any tips for self help while waiting for an appointment with my dentist??? Any home remedies or over-the-counter products for helping clean out the infection??

The last reason with the force may be the reason I’m probably experiencing dry socket. The dentist was pulling and twisting so hard to get the tooth out because my root was curved

So I just got dry socket and I have a question with I get it the dry socket treatment do I have to get a needle for this treatment ?

I got seven teeth (4 wisdom, 2 baby molars, one adult molar) removed on June 26th (9 days ago) and i got a dry socket about day 4. I went back to the dentist and they put that paste in my socket. The pain has stopped but every time i do a rinse, especially on my left side a yellowish color comes out with my saliva. Also my swelling has went down significantly but there is a bump under my left chin towards the back of my jaw. When do you think swelling will be completely gone and is it normal for the paste to natural come out of the socket? Also thanks for the very informative video
