Anybody had multiple teeth pulled? Please read and see if you can help me!?

Question:

I've had five teeth pulled. Two of them were the farthest back which were side by side. Now my gum under the tooth that is still there is hurting. I hope this is making sense. My gums feel like they are shrinking, where my teeth were pulled, and I think that's what is causing the pain. I don't have partials or anything.

If you haven't ahd your teeth removed by an oral & maxillofacial surgeon, no wonder you don't have adequate post operative instructions. Go to http://www.oceansurgical.com.au/postoper... to download some friendly advice

yes i had five also i was put to sleep completely they took them out by a surgeon so they cut my gums and then stitched them back . just took pain killers

I had one molar yanked out one time.It was the farthest one back there.The dentist had trouble,he really pulled hard and slipped-banging the side of my head.this molar had huge tree like roots.You could feel it rip and crunch on it's way out.I was freaked out by the pain.Finally he ripped it out,I requested Extra Strength Vicoden for the trauma and pain.I don't like extractions,but sometimes you gotta do it.
