I dont want to go to the sentist again coz its expensive i dont have an insuranceAlso can i now brush my teeth with toothpaste (colgate optic white).? [/INST] Hi, Thanks for asking the query, Pain and swelling are most common after wisdom tooth extraction, and they subside after sometimes, according to your clinical symptoms I suppose that you might have some trauma to the nerve at the time of extraction. I would suggest you to take multivitamin supplements for 15 days. Take lukewarm saline rinses. Take antiseptic mouthwash gargles. Avoid smoking and consumption of hot and spicy food stuffs. If the symptoms persists or worsen then you have to visit to the concerned Dentist and get the checkup done. Hope you find this as helpful, Regards. </s>
