Kindly consult a dentist in person for further suggestion. We need more investigations with clinical examination to decide upon treatment. You may need coronoplasty (smoothen teeth edges) along with multivitamin cap, for five days in the morning after meals & antiseptic ointment or gel (turbocort) on the area of ulcer until then. Mouth sores are common and rarely cause complications. Most go away in about a week, but it’s important to monitor any mouth sores you develop. If you are concerned, or if the sore doesn’t seem to be healing, contact your dentist rinse your mouth thoroughly with a mouth wash after every meal. Advance procedures can be done with laser. You may consult me in person.
Don't worry its called dry socket. N it's quite normal with some patients after extraction. Plss visit your dentist who did your treatment and meanwhile plsss don't touch that area. He vl treat the condition and it will subside within a few weeks.
Hello, you have 2 options to replace the missing tooth. Either you can go for dental bridge, or you can opt dental implant. Both can be done now also. Please consult your dentist before choosing any of them.

Hello lybrate-user.
Yes at times it does happen that grafted bone does not grow 100% & hence your tooth is still weak. You can either wait & check if the bone healing improves or you can get a smile design done which will improve your smile to some extent. It is not an alternative to braces but in some cases smile design gives better result than braces.

You need to visit the dentist again.
If pain don't go in 72 hrs then it is mandatory you visit the dentist again.
Dentist will put zinc oxide pack or alveogyl pack dressing.
For three sittings and few steriods tablets or antiinflammatory tablets for three more days depending what your dentist had given you before, during and after your tooth removal, then only your pain and discomfort will go. After wisdom tooth extraction pain and swelling is mandatory but it goes of after 72 hrs and if doesnot then you must visit again and get the dressing again.
