  • Answer:

    It is important that you take your antibiotic and pain medication as part of your after tooth extraction care. The antibiotic prevents infection of the wound created during your oral surgery and an infection free wound is much more comfortable than one that is infected. You must return in one or two week for your post operative appointment. To be sure you have healed correctly. Sutures may also need to be removed. No one wants oral surgery complications but if they do occur you should report them to the dentist immediately.

I've had something similar. It was "transferred pain". I went to the dentist knowing I had a bad cavity in the tooth. He couldn't find a cavity with x-rays, and it turned out the tooth in question was above it and the pain actually transferred to a bottom healthy tooth. once he filled the cavity all pain disappeared.
