Post wisdom-tooth extraction issue...
Yes, I know I should call my dentist. Yes, I know very few of our members are actually dentists. Yes, I know most of you are not qualified to comment on this. Yes, I am calling my surgeon in the morning to ask this very question.
Now, having gotten that out of the way...
I had my wisdom teeth taken out last Monday, and the past 2 days there has been a terrible taste in my mouth. I know bad taste/breath is a sign of dry socket, but the pain is getting a little better every day...not worse. Hubby told me this same thing happened to him...nasty taste in the mouth while everything healed. Basically...did this happen to anyone here and everything turned out fine? I'm not particularly worried about dry socket or infection...the taste is just so bad that it's almost nauseating.
