Normal?: Pain is not normal and whether or not it's related to the extraction of your wisdom tooth can only be determined by an x-ray and a one on one clinical exam. Return to your dentist for an evaluation. We cannot either diagnose the problem nor treat you. Call for an appointment.

Referred pain: You may experience similar pain temporarily as a result of your surgery. Your other teeth may also ache. This is called referred pain and is also a temporary condition.
