Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

According to your i suspect thet there could be a chance of some broken tooth piece left in the socket.
Pain can also be due to dry socket formation at the extraction site, i would suggest you to visit the Dentist and get the thorough clinical examination done.
Take an x-ray of the affected region to determine the cause of pain and plan approppraite treatment.
Continue with the course of antibiotics and analgesics prescribed to you.
Take lukewarm saline and antiseptic mouthwash rinses.

Take care!

hi there
thank you for writing in healthcare magic.
pain in maxillary (upper) and mandibular (lower)jaws ,or alveolar bone or teeth ...just do not worry about the site because pain can be radiating types.
continue your antibiotics regime.
explain your concern to your dentist as you are having an appointment soon.
I would suggest you to go for full mouth radio graph ,
and clinical examination of temero mandibular joint too.
write us back if any doubt
take care.

Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

The pain adjacent to extracted tooth may be due to hematoma /dry socket formation at the site of extraction socket.

Pain in jaws caused due to injury to underlying structures while extracting tooth.

A detailed clinical as well as x-ray evaluation of the affected area is necessary to rule out the cause of pain.

The socket has to be drained and curetted well .

Dressing as well as frequent application of ice packs may be helpful.

Avoid anxiety,take complete course of medicines prescribed.

Hope this helps.

hi...
thanks for the query...
i will advice you to visit your dentist again and go for proper clinical and radiographic examination of the tooth... it might be carious or may become traumatized during extraction... and go for treatment after proper diagnosis...
the other thing could be post extraction pain... that can be due to dry socket or infection... in either case you have to visit your dentist for proper examination and diagnosis...
hope it will help you...
take care...
