Had Tooth Extraction, Not Able To Swallow. Will It Heal On Its Own?
I had an extraction of tooth #2 upper right, I had it done Monday. I have some throbbing still and the tooth in front of where the extraction was feels alien. My bite is way off and I cant swallow correctly. Will this correct itself over time. I have a cross bite. Or will I need to do an implant/bridge?

Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.
As you are mentioning that you got your tooth extracted 4 days back and now you are feeling some throbbing, it can be possible as during the time of healing there is some pressure developing inside
