nyuszisie,

Having any type of surgery just prior to your menses can slow down the healing from the surgery.

If the OS opens up the site there is a chance of developing a dry socket. The healing would be similar to that of the extraction. The debidement takes a few minutes and yes a local anesthetic is adequate.

If the OS reopens the wound there is a chance for dry socket again ? and how long that debridement procedure takes ? local anestethic is enough during the procedure ?
Thank you !!
