The bubble as you have described it is not normal and you should let your dentist take a look at it. FYI.... absence of pain is not a good indicator of a problem that may be brewing. Best to have it checked soon.

QUOTE=4kidz4me;1009374]A little over 2 weeks ago I had tooth #3 extracted. It had broke and was causing a little pain. I have no dental insurance so the dentist said he could pull it. There was a TON of tugging and pulling to get it out. It was worse than any of my top wisdom teeth.

I wasn't given an antibiotic. About a week ago I noticed that on one side of the socket there is what feels like a bubble. I can't see it that well since its on the top. It feels squishy and is red it doesn't fill up the whole socket. I don't have any pain.I feel some pressure every once in awhile but i keep messing with it with my tongue so that is probably why. Is this normal? I have a chip missing out of #2 tooth also but they left it since it doesn't bother me.

Thanks.
