Subject: Hope it heals quickly.... poor Rick! Nothing worse than mouth pain, cuz it makes it so hard to eat!
In reply to: Kate 's message, "Well Rick is home from the dentist....
I guess he does not have a dry-socket afterall.....he said he is healing just fine, and probably the pain was/is due to the site being so large and that there was some food particles stuck in it....So, they flushed it out, and gave him a syringe and a prescription for an anti-bacterial mouth wash....he also said with the size of the hole, it could be up to a month before it is really healed....
Rick and I are both really surprised by this, but Dr. Rice is one of the best (if not the best) in our area, people come from all over to see him, so we trust his opinion...I just hope Rick starts getting some relief....." on 11:28:29 am, Mon, 07/02/07

  • Good grief, Kate, that sounds like what happened to me (many, many years ago) when I had my wisdom teeth pulled. It was a Friday and I spent the weekend in abject pain, unable to open my mouth enough to even get the pain pills in. I called in sick to work on the following Monday and called the dentist. Same thing........large hole and some "stuff" had gotten stuck in the hole. They cleaned it out while I cried and I was sent home with instructions to rinse, rinse, rinse. I just remember that I was totally miserable for over a week. I did go back to work on that Tuesday but had to take several hours every afternoon to go lay down in the ladies lounge with a heating pad. So I do understand and believe me, Rick has my sympathy and compassion. I hope he feels better quickly.......although for him, it's probably not quickly enough.
