I had my wisdom teeth removed a week ago
today. They are feeling very good and I
have almost no pain. The only problem is
that I have this horrible taste in my
mouth. It appears to be originating my my
lower right wisdom tooth area. I don't
believe it is an infection as I am already
taking penicillin for 4 days for an
infection. Could it be dry socket? I
heard dry socket was very painful though.
What should I do?

Yes if you have dry socket you will
defanantly know that, you will be having
excrusiating pain and having to go to the
er for it, or your on call dentist, trust
me, you would kicking and screaming and
pacing the floor and no kind of pain
killers would even help. If you want to
know what dry socket is , thats what it
is.
