Pain after tooth removal

Description

Dry socket ili pain after tooth removal. Severe pain in the mouth which occurs two or more days after tooth extraction. Dry socket is also called an alveolar osteitis. A blood clot or a thrombus has primarily protective role for our body. When we hurt certain tissue or blood vessel, the clot appears on that site to prevent the bleeding. The stated syndrome occurs due to loss of blood clot in the alveolus where the tooth was extracted, whereby the bones are exposed to the air, food or liquid. Dry socket is most common in smokers and after traumatic extractions, for example of impacted wisdom teeth. Following dentist instructions after tooth extractions can prevent these complications.
