I had ten teeth extracted by an emergency dentist. With one of the upper molars, he perforated the sinus cavity. He placed a compound in it to increase the clotting, but I can feel air flowing through it even when I am at rest. There is air blowing into my mouth and it feels quite weird. He also gave me a ten day course of antibiotics. Should I be concerned about this?<\/p>\n<p>Emilio<\/p>\n<p>Dear Emilio,<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/emergency-dentist.jpg\" alt=\"Man holding his jaw in pain\" width=\"290\" height=\"282\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2056\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Usually, when a patient sees an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/lafayette-la-emergency-dentist.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">emergency dentist<\/a> they just get the patient out of pain and do the minimal procedure necessary than have you reschedule with your normal dentist. I am a little surprised that this dentist removed ten of your teeth in one appointment. While he was right to get the clotting started, he should also have closed the hole. Will it heal without that? Possibly, but it will take a long time and you are at risk for infection while you are waiting for the healing. In your place, I would see an oral surgeon to have them graft some bone there to close and heal the area. <\/p>\n<p>Another issue I am concerned about is the number of teeth you&#8217;ve had removed. It is important that they are replaced as soon as possible. Otherwise, you will begin to lose your bone structure in those areas as well. Without that, you could end up with a condition known as facial collapse. I&#8217;m going to recommend that you have them replaced with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/dental_implants.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">dental implants<\/a> because these will preserve your bone.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes we have found that patients who end up with dental emergencies have a fear of the dentist that keeps them away until they are in too much pain to avoid it anymore. I want you to know, just in case that is a situation you find yourself in that there is a solution. I&#8217;d like you to see a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/sedation-dentist\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">sedation dentist<\/a>. They have medication they can give you which will allow for you to have a pain-free\/anxiety-free appointment. Dentists who offer sedation are used to patients with anxiety and can help put you at ease. <\/p>\n<p>This blog is brought to you by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.camelliadds.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Lafayette, LA Dentist<\/a> Drs.
