Hello I just had a molar pulled yesterday while i was under an anesthetic and ive had no swelling or pain i was wonder why this is? Even my sister(whos had teeth pulled) is puzzled by this , and approximately how long will the extraction site take to heal?
Hi thanks for your query at ChatDoctorits good you don't have pain or swelling.if tooth extraction is done in non-traumatic way as far as possible as post extraction symptoms will be less. It will take around a week for superficial healing of an extraction socket.but bone regeneration could take 6 months...if you want to go for an artificial tooth replacement you can go after 10 to 15 days to your dentist . He will thoroughly analyze the socket and will suggest you.do saline rinses for better healing.hope it will help you.take care...
