<s>[INST] Hi, my lower right wisdom tooth was removed 9 hours ago. I feel well with no pain just a tingling on the root. My tooth was so big and dentist took 1 hour to take it of the roots was like crabs arms around the bone. The neighbouring tooths root was also involved because of the sticking to the wisdom tooth.Is it a possibility to get infected? [/INST] Hello, Tingling sensation at the extraction site less than a day of extraction is not abnormal and is commonly due to inflammation and manipulation of the tissues at the extraction site. It can also be trauma to the peripheral nerve endings during the extraction procedure. If the adjacent tooth root was also involved then there can be decay but should be confirmed with an x-ray. For now, you should wait and watch and let the extraction site heal. The tingling sensation will also get resolved. You can also take anti-inflammatory painkillers like Ibuprofen and do cool compresses over the cheek. Take soft meals and avoid spiting vigorously or sucking something with a straw. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. </s>
