I'm guessing that you just dropped $1000 - $1500 to have those four teeth removed. I would go back to the dentist and have him take a look, what's another $20.? Besides, if you get "dry socket" they have to cut it open so it can start re healing! Do you really want to suffer, I know I wouldn't!Health Question & Answer
