Dentist 's  Response
Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.
It looks that the tooth which was pulled out was not a wisdom tooth , it can be the back tooth or second molar that looks like wisdom tooth only.
So you should visit a good dentist and get an x - ray done, which will show you the conditions accurately.
Hope it will help you.
I find this answer helpful
