Hi Bryanna,

Thanks for your advice. I heard back from the dental clinic today and am told the oral surgeon (who performed the extractions) will call me by the end of day. She is travelling at the moment and I have made the necessary arrangements for the shows I have to do.

I used the waterpik at my own accord, and am right now quite mad with myself for doing so. Kicking myself hard for this. I had become so paranoid about having food stuck in the wounds because i felt bits in the holes after a meal that I overdid the cleaning. It now seems like there are perforations in both upper left and right extraction sites (though the left feels larger).

I am hoping that the surgeon can have it treated/sealed as soon as possible as I also have to fly on 7 Dec.
