Call your dentist: Call the dentist who extracted your teeth for all questions and concerns. He\she knows the specifics of your situation and would be the one to give you the most accurate answers.

Yes: You shouldn't have a lot of swelling from front tooth extractions. Or much numbness. See the dentist who did the extractions for a check up.
