What Is Causing Withdrawal Symptoms After Taking Vicidin For Tooth Pain?

I have been taking vicodin for about 2-3 weeks for dental pain, now I am not taking anymore and I have been experiencing some withdrawal symptoms. I have tried to slowly take my self off by taking 800mg of ibuprofen, but I want to know how long these symptoms will continue?
