What can i do to treat intense radiating pain after wisdom tooth extraction?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Medication: Anti-inflammatory meds are very helpful with this type of pain like Ibuprofen or aleve (naproxen). If it doesn't subside in a few days, see your treating dentist.

Drugs: The dentist who removed the teeth should be able to prescribe appropriate medication to help you. In any case, the post-operative discomfort should decrease within a short time. If you have significant pain several days after an extraction, see the dentist who did the extraction.
