Dry socket is no fun, I know as I had that when I was sitting my Bar finals. But once I'd been back to the dentist, it settled down quite quickly, I recall. Hope you start to see some light at the end of the tunnel soon. Clemmie

Oh gosh. I've heard that's incredibly painful. Hope you get it fixed and soon feel better. Good luck for tomorrow. Angela x

Dry socket has to be the worst kind of toothache pain. I've had it several times now. The quicker you get it repacked the better, and the relief once the socket is no longer "dry" is wonderful.

Did you know that you need to inform your RD nurse when you have an infection some drugs stop an infection getting better. When I was on Cimzia injections I had to stop them for weeks while my tooth problems got sorted like you it was from having a tooth out. Sure you know this but just in case you didn't x
