A member asked:
How can i get the feeling of something being inside of my tooth extraction site after eating. was not giving a syringe just to wash with salt water?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Keep rinsing: If the sensation of something being in the extraction site after eating, warm salt rinses should help. If not, call your dentist and ask him for an irrigation syringe to clean the socket.
