Hole in mouth after wisdom tooth extraction?

So, I had my wisdom teeth removed last week and while I didn't die or anything during the procedure I have to say the aftermath was AWFUL!!! I have lots of allergies and the only med I could take was darvocet which is NOT a good pain killer for tooth pain BTW!!! Anyway, I just noticed I have a hole in the side of my mouth back where the tooth used to be. Not the socket where the tooth came out but the side of my mouth in my jaw next to where the tooth would be if that makes sense. What is going on???

Hole in mouth after wisdom tooth extraction?
wisdom tooth/3rd molar is one of the hardest tooth to take out, and it needs surgery, the tissue needs to be cut open for successful extraction (can vary on the case of the 3rd molar's position)





that hole must not be there, all of the holes including the socket where the tooth used to be must be stitched so that no infections will be acquired





consult your dentist about that matter. just be careful that no food particles or anything will get stuck in there
Reply:Hum, I'm not sure. Are you going to have a follow-up on it soon? When I got mine out I had to go back to the the stitches out. If this is the case for you, wait and tell your doctor then. If not, it sounds strange because there should only really be one hole where the tooth came out but maybe they had to cut a different hole too to get it out, was the tooth impacted? I don't think it's life threatening, if it hasn't healed in a few days call your doctor if you don't have a follow up appointment.
Reply:that's just where they cut a little bone out. in six months you won't even be able to tell it was there.

if your wisdom tooth was infected probobly it went 2 your sinesus!


go to the dentist's office he might know..
Reply:i have the same thing. its normal. that hole will fill up with tissue as it heals, and yeah it is on the side, not where the actual tooth socket is.
