Is it normal to still have really bad pain on day 6 after wisdom teeth removal? i removed 3 of my wisdom teeth last week monday and the roof of my mouth has a hole now and it's extremely painful.

Dry Socket ?: It is very possible you have a dry socket. Please go back to the oral surgeon who extracted the teeth for a post-op follow up.

Dry socket?: Infection. Return to GeneralDentist or specialist Oral Surgeon that treated you. Post-operative care is required.
