I had my upper wisdom tooth extracted just over 48 hours ago, and it was surprisingly easy! I have had minimal pain and just taking over the counter paracetamol. I am though experiencing a small amount of light headedness. Is this normal?

thanks
 
Are you eating? We tend not to eat normally after an extraction which can cause the feelings you are experiencing.

If you are worried then contact your dentist and ask them for their advice, I do think you are probably fine but I am not a dentist.

I hope this helps, keep the area clean and follow your aftercare instructions. All the best to you :butterfly:
