Hi there, I just got my bottom left wisdom tooth removed. I have a lot of swelling and my top teeth are digging into my swollen cheek. I took advil and Im applying ice to my face. Should I be worried? Will this cause any harm in the healing process?Thank you.-Ashley
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The swelling will come down in 3-5days. Ideally speaking, both the wisdom teeth has to be removed at a time(upper and lower) to prevent complications like the upper tooth impinging on the lower gums. Nothing to be panic, wait for a week, if the tooth is still impinging or hurting then get the upper wisdom tooth removed.Meanwhile, continue the medicines. Do saline gargling. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
