Been advised by my dentist not to do anything stressful/energetic as clot needs to form - wish me luck-I'm going to collect my nearly 4 year old from Nursery.

It should heal quite quickly.
I have had all my wisdom teeth out, I always rinsed with warm salt water.

Best wishes. 🙂

Thanks - will do that. My little girl has been fantastic -just lay down with me & watched DVD-not her usual leaping about.

I've haven't gone to the dentist yet because of wisdom tooth problem. Was it really that painful?

Hope you're feeling better today. Continue the mouth rinses and be gentle on your mouth for the next 24 hours and you'll be fine!

Actually having a tooth out is less painful by far than an abcess or impacted wisdom teeth.

Thanks-you're right- the discomfort is much better than the pain was. If I could just get rid of the horrible taste!!!
