Premolar tooth extraction?

How long should it take for a premolar extraction to completely heal ? And is it normal that if you suck on the healing-over gum where the socket is to get a tangy bitter taste ?

Premolar tooth extraction?
It will take about a month to feel a lot better, and about 3 months to be completely healed.





Do not suck over the socket as you will interfere with the healing process and you may dislodge a blood clot which is all part of the healing process.





After having an extraction you can have a range of weird tastes - that's normal. It could be the medicine the dentist has put in the keep it clean or sometimes they use disolvable gauze or solvable stitches.





Try not to mess with it! Contact your dentist if you begin to get any toothache in that area - apart from that be patient - it will heal and all weird tastes will go - i promise!
Reply:it takes about 1 month to be completely healed.
Reply:initial healing would occur around 2 days, this mean that there would be no more bleeding, a matrix has formed within the extraction site though there would still be wound, it would be less painful.





complete healing wherein a new layer of tissue has regenerated would take about 3 weeks or more depending on your body's capability to regenerate tissue.





i suggest you take vitamin C after you stop you pain medication, vit c promotes and speeds up wound healing.
Reply:about two weeks
Reply:Don't suck on the healing area! Your dentist may have placed a medication inside the socket where your tooth was extracted. Depending on the medication, you could get a bad taste.


For the first and second day, you want to focus on avoiding anything that creates a suction in your mouth, such as drinking from a straw, smoking, spitting hard and swishing. Any of these actions can dislodge the blood clot that protects the socket, much like a band aid. If the blood clot does get removed, you will have what is called a Dry socket. It is very painful to have one and you will need to see your dentist to have him treat it.


As far as the time for healing, it normally takes 3 weeks.
Reply:well when i got mine done it took about 3 days.
