My husband had a tooth pulled a week ago
and the pain is still severe. Today he
came home and asked me to take a look at
the site, because it felt like something
was scratching his tongue. sure
enough, it looks like a piece of the
jawbone is sticking up out of the place
where his tooth was pulled. The dentist
had told us that his jawbone is
deteriorating, but I never heard of the
bone sticking out like that. We are cash
patients, no insurance, and the bill for
that extraction, we were told would be
$75.00, but then the dentist said it was a
surgical extraction instead of a simple,
so it cost us $180.00. don't
have the money for another visit, any
ideas?Ever heard of bone coming up through
the gums where it should be healing?
