Is my gum healing or is it infected?
I had a Pre-Molar Extraction 5 days ago. Pain is minimal and swelling has reduced. My left jaw line gland has been swollen since before the extraction and no sign of it going down.

My question is is this just a scab or is it infected, my biggest fear is sepsis in the jaw as many family members have had issues with teeth. Any help with this will be...

So I have dry socket? Is it infected or healing well? 9 days after wisdom tooth extraction

Or if that doesn't work and is a myth what about using a standard aligner. You can get them online they're...

Extraction and Braces instead of impant
Hello, I had a root canal done on tooth #13 a few years ago, but there was so much decay on the tooth that my dentist had to drill most of the tooth. Because of how little of the tooth is left the crown does not fit correctly, leaving a bit of a gap. The dentist that did the root canal suggested that in the future I get it extracted and get an implant, but also suggested that I get it extracted and instead of getting an implant that I get braces to correct the crowding on my upper and...
