Ten days ago I had all my teeth pulled. I have terrible pain and what seems like displaced bones Pls. help

It is very difficult for me to understand how possibly I can have lumps on the sides of my gums in between my bottom lip and my jaw bone that hurt and the same on the other side of that area and on the top of my mouth also. I have a temporary false plate that hurts to much to keep in because of the little protrusions that appeared about 3 days after surgery. No one told me about this complication and I've had such terrible luck with dentist that I am extremely worried and if anyone knows anything I would be so thankful if you emailed me. I had about $50,000 worth of work on my teeth and it was finished in 2000 only to find out that the dentist that I have no occlusion. How can my mouth hurt so much when there are not any teeth in there? I'm usualy pretty good with pain but this is like a constant ache and with Motrim 600 mg and Tylenol 3, I still have pain. Thank you for your help.

It is unfortunate to face so much pain even after having spent a fortune like amount in the hope of painless dentistry. Huskymom has provided excellent elaboration. The Ivoclar Vivadent has come out with a revolutionary biofunctional prosthetic system, named BPS Dentures, which have life like teeth, comfortable, and fit snugly causing no sore gums. It costs USD 550-650.00 for complete set of dentures in Thailand or India.

Reply:call your dentist and ask for a stronger dose of medicine


you should not be in so much pain from julie
Reply:It sounds to me like you have a dry socket. It happens when the nerve is exposed after a tooth is pulled. Been there..done that. It I had it happen once and I swear it was worse than child birth. Go back to your Dentist for some pain meds. The only thing that even slightly hepled me was large doses of Ibuprophen, ands even then the pain lasted almost a month. It was positively horrid!!!
Reply:It is very normal to have pain after full mouth extractions and having an immediate denture put in. This is an odd thing in your mouth and you are going to have a long road ahead of you getting used to it. You will probably need multiple adjustments. This does not mean that the denture was poorly made. An immediate denture is made using "guess work". As your tissue and bone heals and changes, you will have sore spots. You may have on on the left side one day, get that adjusted and then a couple of days later have one on the right side. I have adjusted hundreds of dentures in my time.





As far as the bone, are they splinter like? If so these are bone spurs. They will usually work their way out, but once they break through, you can grab the end with a clean pair of tweezers. If you are just feeling large lumps, this is probably just the normal shape of the bone now that there are no roots embedded into the jaw. Some dentists do what is called Alveoloplasty, which is basically reconturing the bone, at the time of the extractions. The bone will change alot over the next few months. I hate to tell you, but you are in for a difficult time learning to deal with this new denture. The pain should subside once the extraction sites heal more. If you are having sore spots, they need to be adjusted. I usually place a soft liner, what is called a tissue conditioner, in the immediate dentures in my office. These are temporary, usually needing to be replaced every week or so. But if does help with the pain.





If you are having throbbing pain in an extraction site, you may have a dry socket and there is no at home treatment for that. You have to go to the dentists office.
