There is some ooze coming from my gum on the side where i had my wisdom tooth removed. that was 6 weeks ago. am i getting an abscess?

Dental infection: You may have an infection. Best to call the dentist or oral surgeon that removed the wisdom tooth and evaluate the problem.

Residual infection?: After 6 weeks the extraction site should be 95% healed. Residual infection from the surgery is possible and i believe you asked an earlier question about your lip being swollen which likely is being caused by that as well. Go back to the doc or surgeon who removed your wisdom tooth to have the area checked and if infection is confirmed you will need antibiotics to help it heal.

May be infected: This may be an infection or a dry socket. Rinse with warm salt water and get it checked by your dentist.

Doctor of Treatment: Without visually assessing the area, i would advise you to see the dentist or oral surgeon that removed the tooth. They will know the circumstances of the tooth removal. Perhaps they can irrigate the area or prescibe an antibiotic if needed.

Depends : If the adjacent teeth to the area of extraction site. , are heathy , then unlikely . More likely that a food particle needs to be flushed out of the extraction site

No; Dry Socket: It maybe healing granulomatous tissue following a difficult tooth extraction.

Very possibly. : Go back to your oral surgeon and have it checked. There may be some contaminant in it or an infection requiring antibiotics to eliminate the possible infection.
