See your dentist: Dry socket after tooth extraction is one of the most dreaded tooth extraction complications. The severe pain typically starts about 3-4 days after the tooth was extracted. See your dentist for dry socket diagnosis and treatment. Get well soon!

Tooth pain: Nope, that's not normal. Call the dentist who performed the extraction to be sure there is not a serious complication such as infection.
