I had 3 wisdom teeth removed about 2 weeks ago. 1 was impacted. 2 days post op I was in extreme pain which happened to be a dry socket and I went to the oral surgeon and he put in a dressing which did help with the pain somewhat. The following day, he took it out and put in another one which he left in for 3 days before removing it. 1 week later, the pain in my jaw was not as bad as before, but i was still experiencing pain and my gums were very sore and irritated probably due to the dressing. the dentist didn't seem concerned and said the pain would diminish. I have been taking ibuprofen during the day and percocet at night to help with the pain, but it's not helping and the pain has not subsided at all. I continue to have pain on the right side of my face and my lower jaw where the impacted tooth was removed. I have trouble sleeping because of the pain. Is it normal to be in this much pain 2 weeks post op or could it be an infection or did he do some damage during the extraction? Should I have an x-ray taken?
