Ok good! I was just making sure because I know a lot of people have talked about not having as much pain, but everyone is different. And by cleaning I mean I irrigate the extraction site with the syringe with warm salt water and before it was peridex because it was infected, not mouthwash or anything because I know that is not good! Lol. and I don't know if I am not being gentle enough or if it's just sore, but knowing it's normal and that it will go away eventually makes me feel better! Thanks so much!!(:
