My other teeth hurt after wisdom teeth extraction? ?
I’m 13 years old and had all four of my wisdom teeth removed on Thursday, March 15. The extraction sites don’t hurt much, and the swelling has been decreasing. I’ve been taking painkillers and penicillin. However, I’ve been experiencing aching in my other teeth, almost like there’s pressure on them. I’m not sure why this is happening, and there are no other symptoms. The pain seems to be mostly in the back teeth. Can anyone help me understand this?
Additionally, the left bottom extraction site hurts a lot at night. The pain is so intense that I feel like I’m almost screaming from it. It hurts all around the area, particularly in my jaw, but not in the gums. What could be causing this? Thank you to everyone for your help!

The other teeth are just resettling. Wisdom teeth usually get extracted because they are pushing the other teeth out of alignment, so once the wisdoms are removed, this allows the other teeth to move to their final resting place.
If its been a week since your wisdom teeth have been extracted,& you haven”t had any problems with bleeding, or excrutiating pain. What this sounds like with you is that you may have a sinus infection. When your sinuses are infected it does affect the roof of your mouth, and your teeth will get sore. For your own sake, feel above your eyes to see if they feel sore, have you had an extra amount of drainage in the back of your throat, i would go to your family Dr. to have that checked. Sometimes if you have had the extractions like you have it can move the sinuses around. Even though you’ve probably been on antibotic, you may even ask your Dr. about taking some Mucinex that you can purchase over the counter.
That’s normal. Your teeth are settling back to where they should be. And yes, the pain is always worse at night. Why? I don’t know. I suppose it’s because our bodies are trying to go into “rest mode”?
If the pain is too much talk to your Dentist or Oral Surgeon about some pain management. An Ibuprofen or two along with the pain pills helps a lot. So does some cold compresses on the face. Or, you can have some sherbet or ice cream to numb it! (If you are allowed to eat sugary foods)

yes because your wisdom teeth were probably hitting your other teeth which could make them sensative after they are removed and now with the free space, your teeth will probably shift a bit to make more room.
You should go back in to see the oral surgeon or dentist who did the extractions so he or she can take a look. You may have developed an infection or nerve damage.
