Loud pop/crunch and now biting hurts?
So I had my second wisdom tooth extraction over a week ago. Sideways tooth cracked and removed partially, then the site stitched.
Recovery was going well, faster than the first tooth. I had zero pain so I was eating normally on last Tuesday. No soreness either.
Then on Wednesday I was biting into a sandwich and suddenly heard this very loud crunch/pop sound. I thought I cracked a tooth because it sounded a lot like when the wisdom tooth was portioned.
I thought maybe it was some muscle pop but several days later I still can't really bite into anything harder or stringier without having pain in my lower jaw on the side where the tooth was taken out. The pain goes away after a bit when I stop eating. I can eat softer things just fine.
Any idea what this could be?
