I had all four pulled at once also and I was in bad shape like that for about a week. It will go away though..... you can't really scratch it but if you put a piece of gauze on the area and maybe gently bite down on that it'll make the itchiness go away.Health Question & Answer
Geez...where did you guys go for dental work (poster and first responder).?
I had all 4 wisdom teeth removed and required surgery as the bottom two were growing in sideways. I had a dry socket on one of the bottom ones after the surgery. However, within a day I was able to eat almost normal and within 3-4 weeks I could eat whatever I wanted. No swelling, no displaced ability to bite, nothing. I would talk to your orthodontist and find out what happened to cause such adverse affects. I'm pretty sure it is not normal to be that messed up 3 days later.Health Question & Answer

Take some advil or motrin to bring down the swelling and help with the pain.Health Question & Answer
