I've had my wisdom teeth out for about 55 hours and they don't hurt much but i've had a weird taste in my mouth sometimes, don't know if it's normal?

Wisdom teeth: Sometimes the weird taste is just food that gets trapped back in the recent extraction sites. On occasion the nasty taste has been associated with dry socket or infection. If you experience pain or swelling, you could be having a dry socket or infection. If no pain or swelling then you are more than likely okay. Follow up with the doctor that did your surgery if you continue to have concerns
