5 DAYS: Typically, most dry sockets develop in the first 5 days or so. So you are still at a reasonable risk. When gum tissues start to cover the area, thus trapping the clotted blood underneath, you are at a better chance of uneventful recovery and healing. Make sure to follow the surgeon's/dentist's post-op instructions, and if something is not feeling normal, contact the office.

Dry socket: Risk decreases with time. Most occur within 5 days of surgery.the practitioner that can best answeryour question is the one that did your surgery. Post-operative Care is covered by the surgical fee you hav3 already paid. If you are unsure as to your status, call the Dental Surgeon or Specialist Oral Surgeon that removed your tooth.
