  • What is a dry socket?

    Ordinarily following an extraction, a blood clot forms.  If this clots successfully, it forms the primary healing matrix.  Occasionally, the clot gets disturbed or infected or just doesn't form well.  After a few days, it  falls out of the extraction site.  This exposes the alveolar bone.  This is called alveolar osteitis or more commonly, "dry socket."  It is quite painful.  The treatment is to go to a dentist and have the wound site packed with a medicated dressing.  Relief is usually profound and immediate.   READ MORE
