How long can hard-boiled eggs stay out at room temperature? The Easter basket looks empty without them. Your friendly U.S. Department of Agriculture says you can keep those colorful eggs in the Easter basket or out for an Easter egg hunt for absolutely as long as you like  as long as it's not more than two hours. Otherwise, it says, they should be kept in the refrigerator.
Dry socket can sometimes occur following a tooth extraction. This is caused when the socket where the tooth once was is slow to heal. The condition can be very painful for three to five days or so. Your dentist will advise you of what post extraction regimen to follow in order to help prevent this condition.
This can be caused by deep decay, repeated dental procedures on the tooth, a crack or chip in the tooth or a blow to the tooth. Years ago, teeth with diseased or injured pulps were removed. Today, your dentist uses root canal treatment to find the cause and then treat problems of the dental pulp.
