... Hi I have had a dry socket in one of my four extraction sites for 11 days now and have seen my dentist who dressed it last week on Monday.The socket is feeling so much better and I am barley having to take pain relief.However there is still quite a hole there and I understand it takes time to heal but I am getting braces put on in 2 days from now and I am curious to know weither or not my orthodontist will put the braces on if the socket isn't fully healed.Thanks:)
