Dry socket refers to the inflammation of the alveolar bone or jawbone after your tooth has been extracted and the resultant blood clot is lost either partially or wholly. The loss of the blood clot halts or delays the healing process. This complication can cause you to develop bad breath and a throbbing headache several days after your tooth was extracted. Read on and learn what the experts at Dental One Care in Sterling Heights, MI have to say about what causes dry socket, signs of dry socket, and symptoms, and how it can be prevented.

  • Bacterial causes. Oral bacteria or infections can prevent a blood clot from forming at the tooth extraction site. Dr. Fadi Farhat, the best dentist in Sterling Heights MI, adds that bacteria present in the mouth can also break down the clot, resulting in a dry socket.
  • Mechanical causes, such as rinsing your mouth aggressively, sucking on a straw, dragging on a cigarette or even spitting can all cause you to lose the blood clot that had formed at the tooth extraction site.
  • Age. People who are older than 30 years of age are at a higher risk of dry socket since their bones are denser, they have a reduced blood supply to the mouth and the extraction process is likely to be more traumatic than that done on a younger person.
  • If you are concerned about the possibility of dry socket when your tooth is extracted, talk to Dr. Fadi Farhat and you will have your concerns addressed, including what measures are available to minimize the likelihood of the problem from developing.

    When you suspect that you have dry socket and you visit Dental One Care in Sterling Heights MI, Dr. Fafdi Farhat will usually base on the symptoms you describe, as well as a dental exam, to determine whether what you are experiencing is indeed dry socket.

    For example, it is normal to experience pain when a tooth is extracted, but that pain subsides over the coming days after the procedure. So, if the pain develops days after the tooth extraction, it is likely that you have developed dry socket. Nearly all cases of dry socket develop within the first week after an extraction, so yours may be a different problem if it occurs more than a week after your tooth was extracted.

    Many measures can be taken to prevent or reduce the risk of dry socket from manifesting. We asked our friend, Dr. Jordan Smith, a dentist in Georgetown, KY to for tips on how to prevent dry socket. Dr. Smith recommends the following:

    I've honestly never had a doctor so amazing as Dr. Farhat! I came in for a root canal and I've never had such a painless experience like I did at this office.

    My family and I have been seeing Dr. Farhat and his team since our return to Michigan in 2017. I cannot express the sincere gratitude that I have for the staff at this facility. This is the only dentist that my young children know and I am so happy that they will get to grow up with this team. Along with my husband and I, they helped to reinforce for our children that there is no fear in going to see the dentist, in fact the children look forward to our visits! Dr. Farhat and his team is like family to us and I would never consider relocating to a new dentist as long as we reside in the state of Michigan! I cannot say enough good things about this practice, but you should know that they and exceptionally kind, gentle, caring, trustworthy and fair. We absolutely adore Dental 1 Care and wouldn't think of going anywhere else!

    I think I've found a gem in the rough here! Office staff super polite and friendly! Dr. Farhat is everything I'm looking for in a general dentist. Even though I've only met him and the staff twice now they all made me feel so comfortable for a second there I thought I was getting a massage as I had to have a shot for some treatment. That's the way I like it, no pain!

    I've been going to the dentist for years and its always been an great experience.. Doctor takes a conservative approach when it comes to dental treatment. The office staff is very friendly and professional. The dental hygienists do a great job and are very thorough in the cleaning application. The doctor removed a filling that needed replacement today and did a excellent job. He and his team made this experience very comfortable. They were in sync while they were drilling out the old filling and worked very well together.This is my go to place for all my dental needs. Thank you guys for all the great work that you do God bless.

    I made an appointment for my dad and he had nothing but great words for Dr. Farhat. My dad walked in confused on why his teeth felt weak, and Dr. Farhat quickly diagnosed the issue and gave my dad new fillings. Now a day later, he feels as if everything is back to normal. He highlighted Dr. Farhat's professionalism and knowledge, and I will definitely be recommending anyone I know to him.

    Dr. Farhat is a great dentist!! During one visit he was able to find what was causing me my pain and scheduled me an appointment very quick to have my treatment done! His office staff is so kind and helped me a lot with scheduling and thoroughly explained my benefits and were very flexible to find the best times for me to continue the treatment. Dr. Farhat explained to me everything from the beginning to end and spent a lot of time with me and truly understood my concerns. I will most definitely be a continuing patient!

    Dr. Fadi Farhat is an amazing dentist. He gives the best care and has excellent people skills. I can always count on him to provide me with the best dental care. I recently visited Dr. Farhat to get a second opinion on a periodontal procedure that I was contemplating. Dr. Farhat gave me very valuable dental advice that I followed. Thanks to Dr. Farhat's advice, I saved myself a lot of pain, recovery time, and money. I highly recommend Dr. Farhat.
