Dental Malpractice Cases?
I had a wisdom tooth removed about a week ago and it feels like the dentist stitched my gum to inside of my cheek.
I have a return dental visit in a week.
My face is still swollen and it is painful.
What should I do?
Should I return to the dentist and/or should I consult with an attorney?

You should return to your dentist and see if the stitches can be removed. Sometimes when an extraction of a tooth is done the dentist places stiches and they pull on the inside of the cheek. The swelling happens to some people and that is normal, it takes some people longer to heal from this procedure. The pain can be taken care of with pain medication prescribed from your dentist. Call them and tell them your situation and they should ask you to come see the dentist. I don’t think you have to worry about attorneys at this time.
