Wisdom teeth extraction. + stitches.. risk for dry socket?!
Question: Wisdom teeth extraction. + stitches.. risk for dry socket.?
Does having stitches over your wisdom teeth extraction lessen the chance of a dry socket.? Or is the risk just about the same without stitches.?Health Question & Answer
Answers:
It lessens the chance because it is sewed shut. I have had all 4 of my wisdom teeth out and the doc said dry socket should not be a problem. But when I had a tooth pulled there was just a big hole there so the risk is much greater. Hope this helpsHealth Question & Answer
