A member asked:
My oral surgeon said my tooth extraction came out easier than it should of. what does that mean?

You're Lucky: It means your oral surgeon was anticipating a more complex procedure, with potentially more post operative pain and swelling. As it appears, the extraction progressed smoothly and you're on a fast road to healing.
