Food STILL getting stuck in extraction spots?!

#1 Post by ebjones1 »

I had all four of my wisdom teeth surgically removed back in the beginning of November 2005. They healed very quickly and incredibly well.. But ever since being braced, I constantly feel like food is getting trapped back there! I have more of a problem with food stuck back there than with the food stuck in my brackets! Anybody else have this problem?

I know its not quite the same but when I had my tonsils out a few years ago food used to get stuck and I would have to gargle and rinse like you wouldn't believe before it would go.. That lasted for about a year.. Then it seemed to go away!

I had four teeth extracted one in each front corner of my mouth. That was only 8 weeks ago, but I can't eat hard food because its still too tender if I get food trapped.. Plus sometimes they still bleed if I brush even moderately..
