After having uppers teeth pulled yesterday, 2 surgically. i have a headache and a rapid heart rate between 95-102. does this mean i've developed an infection?

Not quite..: Sorry to hear you're not feeling well. Your headache and mildly elevated heart rate may be just be results/side effects of the procedure, secondary to the pain. I would suggest you try taking an anti-inflammatory, such as Ibuprofen or Naproxen to see if this would help. If you develop a fever or swelling in the area, that could mean an infection, and you should call the dentist. Best wishes.

Possibly: Generally, dental infections take longer than a day to develop. Having upper teeth pulled can certainly lead to headaches once the anesthesia wears off. A pulse of 95 may be due simply to pain. On the other hand, fevers and shaking chills are usually a sign of infection for which to seek help. Most oral surgeons prescribe antibiotics and pain medications; I would recommend contacting yours.

Heart: Heart rate a bit high. May be reaction to the surgery, result of dehydration, infection, the Meds you are taking, or many other causes. Contact the Dentist or Oral Surgical Specialist who did your extractions.

Extraction Infection: What is your normal heart rate? Are you running a fever? Are you swollen? Have your dentist see you to check these things

Not necessarily: But by all means call your oral surgeon and let them know about your symptoms.

Not necessarily: You could have an infection, but it wouldn't likely show up yet. It's normal to have pain, swelling, jaw soreness and some bleeding/seepage at this point. Dehydration would cause headache and faster heart rate. Hydrate well and eat healthy food that does not injure your wound area; take your anti-inflammatories/medications; read your post-op info sheet and follow-up w/your surgeon as needed.
