Dry Socket is a painful condition that can occur after a tooth extraction, particularly after the removal of a wisdom tooth. It happens when the blood clot that forms in the extraction site either dissolves or becomes dislodged, exposing the underlying bone and nerves. Symptoms of Dry Socket include severe pain, bad breath, and an unpleasant taste in the mouth. Treatment typically involves cleaning the socket and placing a medicated dressing to promote healing and relieve pain. It's important to follow post-extraction care instructions to minimize the risk of developing this condition.
