I had a tooth extracted 6 days ago and i'm still in pain but have recently discovered that i think it's the tooth next door causing it. is it normal?

See your dentist: The extraction site and bothersome tooth should be evaluated.

Could be.: Sometimes after an extraction the whole area where the tooth was extracted could become sore. It could also be you developed a "dry socket." It would be best to go back to the dentist that did the extraction to make sure.

Treatment plan: Speak to your dentist and get a treatment plan for all your teeth so you are not again and again in this predicament. A treatment plan will allow you to plan the treatment that you need.
