I had my tooth out last week and have had an aching pain, i went to the dentist today and he put ome sort of packing in it, it tastes loike herbs and is horrible!! will i have to go back and have it removed or will it fall out naturally? can i eat on it? can i drink alcohol?! and when it falls out will i have to go back and have it looked at? didnt get alot of info of my dentist
i got my tooth out 6 days ago and it was hurting from the time my freezing came out.
i thought it was cause he had to twist and tug and drill to get it out
i DO NOT smoke or drink hot beverages and have been following instructions except for the gargling with salt water and i still got it.
i went to the dr today and he put a herbal plant type thing in my hole and it tastes like nutmeg ( i hate nutmeg) and i have been dealing with that yucky taste in my mouth all day and he said it will fall out in a couple day ( not soon enough with this taste).
my friend said that he dr just made hers bleed again and then try to clot it again...wonder if it would have been better then what mine did.
Sounds like your dentist did the right thing. It should get better and improve every day. Any problems, it would be best to have your dentist look again.
