Dry socket pain

by hulagirl47, Sep 03, 2008 11:45AM
How long does dry socket last.  I had my lower wisdom tooth (17) taken out 8 days ago, developed dry socket.  They packed it yesterday and said I would have immediate relief and a day later nothing has helped.  How long will it be before it's better?

Administration of appropriate antibiotics generally can help clear up dry socket in 3-5 days.
