Specializes in Dentistry

Have it checked out: It may be an infection in the bone or more likely an adjacent tooth with a problem. You will need to see your own dentist who can examine you, take some x-rays and tell you what's causing the pain.

Gums and bone.: Perhaps the bone after the extraction is sharp and needs to be taken a look at.
