Experiences with long-term pain and drooling after dental surgery?
Hello everyone, since my mother had her teeth pulled five years ago, she has been suffering from daily pain and drooling. The pain is sometimes mild, but often unbearable, which is why she is being treated with medication. All examinations, such as X-rays, CT scans, etc., by an oral surgeon, pain specialist, and various other doctors have yielded no results.
Has anyone had the same experience and has a crucial tip?
Many thanks in advance!

This sounds like a problem with the nerves (Nerven are distributed everywhere in the body and forward the stimuli to the brain), or with the stimuli processing in the brain. It could be some learned phantom pain. Or it actually puts something on the nerves.
Did she get dentures? Implants or bridges can press on nerves.
Thank you for your answer. Yes, she carries implants, but after extraction she didn’t wear it for a while and already had this pain, which was also associated with “splitting”.
Maybe try a therapy against phantom pain.
Biofeedback methods are often used.
Thank you for the star!
And I hope your mother can be helped!
Thank you.
The only thing I think about – if she didn’t do this – a neurologist and a university clinic abbot. To consult dentistry.
Thanks for the hint! Has it already, but there were no results unfortunately…
I’m sorry. I don’t even think about it. From such a problem as your mother has, unfortunately, I have never heard anything, let alone get along.
Very much. And good for your mother.
Thank you for your effort!
