In most cases, the danger of getting a dry socket has passed in about two weeks. It all depends on how fast the soft tissue in you mouth heals. Once the socket is complete covered in a layer of gum tissue, it is no longer possible to get a dry socket.
Usually a dry socket may occur around the fourth day after dental extraction.
Even though extremely uncommon, a dry socket can occur at any time while the gum is still healing, which normally takes up to 2 months.
There are a few different severy levels of a dry socket. However most people that get it are going to experience the worst pain possible. Most people may not even realize they have a dry socket for a day or two after the extraction. Once the blood clot dissovles or breaks loose then the pain will follw shortly. Once the onset of pain starts it will usually last for roughly 12 days if not treated. There are some remedies that will help reduce the pain though. You should also call your dentist as soon as you feel that something is wrong. He/
She can pack the socket with a few different types of medicines or actual cloth packing soaked in clove oil. This will start to reduce the pain in an hour or less. This may need to be done daily for about a week or until the pain subsides. With medical help the pain should be gone in about 7 days.
after the blood clot that has formed in the hole is gone and tissue has been replaced. Any time you dislodge this clot, you get a dry socket, which is exposed bone to air. Don't smoke, drink through a straw, or do anything that involves a sucking action , usually for around a day to a week. Rinse very gently with warm salt water with a motion of tilting the head from side to side, NOT swishing. This, too, can dislodge the blood clot.
No responsible dentist, oral surgeon, or physician will tell you that it is safe to smoke under any circumstances. There exists the increasing risk of cancers, pulmonary diseases, and other conditions with the continuation of smoking.
In average a dry socket happens 4 days after an extraction. It rarely happens after a week.
A person will be in the clear of a dry socket after about 10 days. A dry socket can be avoided by not using a straw or smoking after getting a tooth pulled.

Eating after treatment of a dry socket when a tooth was pulled, is usually a matter of comfort. Try not to eat anything like nuts, that will lodge in the socket.
