Dry socket can heal on its own, but there are many negative impacts it may have: It takes much longer, the pain persists, it could become even more infected, it is likely that it will not heal properly. Going to the doctor is the best thing to do because they know what they are doing and they can disinfect it and make sure it will heal the way it is supposed to.
An untreated dry socket can lead to infection.
DEFINITELY NOT A DRY SOCKET... YOU WOULD KNOW IF YOU HAD A DRY SOCKET. BASICALLY YOUR SOCKETS ARE JUST CLEAN.
Supposed to be a couple days to help prevent dry socket something to do with the suction or even using a straw, but I think everybody does. Do some searching on dry socket dental for more. . .
dont! it gave me dry socket! ouch!
Clove essential oil is a great solution for dry socket. It can help relieve the pain and discomfort. Clove oil is used in toothpastes and by dentists and is 100% natural. You can apply it by putting clove oil on a q-tip or cotton ball. Then apply the cotton to the dry socket, putting it in place for several moments. Don't apply the clove oil directly to the dry socket it could burn with over exposure. Cotton or q-tip will help you to not overdue it.
It is a bit unlikely to get dry socket 10 days after an extraction, but not impossible. Usually dry socket occurs 3-5 days after the extraction.
There's not much you can do at home to remedy a dry socket. Dentists and oral surgeons need to repack the socket with a medicated dressing that helps with the pain and infection, but it doesn't speed up the healing process much. They need to heal on their own. So see your dentist if you have a dry socket or suspect one due to extreme pain.... if you must wait, rinse your mouth gently with salt water to keep the area clean and try not to focus on the pain.
