ouch, that sucks for you.
For me, it took usually two to three days before the constant pain went away, and after that it was sore for quite a while.

I always wondered what drives people to become dentists, seems all they do is cause pain....

Well I suppose it's natural after all you suffered an injury to your mouth. I have heard some people using cooled black tea (Red Rose) and taking a sip and holding the tea (in your mouth) over the new socket for pain relief.

It should heal in a couple of days.. If it doesn't stop hurting by then u need to go back & see the dentist. Could be a dry socket. ( hurts like hell )

When I had a couple of teeth extracted, I took the 800 mg Ibuprofen, and kept ice on it for two days after. It still sucks though....
