Message: [QUOTE="Anissa Brightwell, post: 116567, member: 6285"] Hi , I've recently had my lower wisdom tooth removed and developed dry socket . I am going to Mexico sat and only had the dressing put in tues . I asked questions but got no real answers so I'm quite apprehensive . So could someone please tell me 1) can I brush normally now or just other teeth ? 2) should it heal over the top of the dressing or underneath and if I see a hole again should I be worried or is this what's meant to happen ? 3) It will be 4 days after the dressing that I fly can I start to eat soft foods by then ? Currently on liquids only . I am taking ibrupofen to reduce jaw swelling not for pain ( although it might be painful had I not taken the tablets ) . The gross taste has reduced loads since having it cleaned .. Is this a good sign or could it come back ? [/QUOTE]
