I got my tooth pulled five days ago. It was clotting like it should then Tuesday morning it was pulled Friday. When I woke up I didn t feel the clot right on top like I did. When I put my tounge down in the whole I feel what feels like flesh not bone. I also have a piece of bone or tooth sticking out rubbing right against my cheek. I can hear my heart beat in my ear, sometimes the side of my face along my ear hearts a little. I m still a little groggy I have antibiotics and I only take my tramadol at night. Does this all sound normal? Does it sound like dry socket?Should I go back to the dentist? will the bone or tooth fall out on its own?if it doesn t and it grows over will it hurt when I eat? sorry lot of questions thanks.
Hello and welcome, First I want to inform you that you are not supposed to touch or impinge the extraction socket as it can delay healing process. The piece touching on cheeks may be the projection of alveolar bone at the extraction socket. Usually this heals once teared gingival approximates.  Chat Doctor.  So I would suggest you to gargle frequently using warm saline Betadine. If the symptoms persists, please do visit your dentist.
