Hello All
I had my right upper 2nd biscupid removed on Thursday. My 1st biscupid had a filling too.
The dentist advised I start flossing twice a day, brush twice a day and use Listerine gum defence because of periodontal disease. He didn't think it was necessary to pack the extraction site or give antibiotics.
I have followed his recommendations and also advice on here but over the last 24 hours I have developed a worsening sensitivity to hot, cold and now even lukewarm food and drink. My upper teeth are feeling highly sensitive and well, odd, and I have a vile metallic taste in my mouth all the time. I have taken paracetamol and ibuprofen to help but it is making little difference.
I don't smoke, haven't drunk alcohol and have been using salt water along side the flossing, brushing and Listerine and my mouth feels wrecked!
I am so miserable right now! I have the dentists in the morning but in the meantime can anyone recommend anything to get rid of this horrid taste and the sensitivity so I can at least try eat??
Many Thanks
Colleen
