I'm a bit worried because four days after having my wisdom tooth taken out from the lower left side, I suddenly started noticing this strange taste in my mouth. Ive been sticking to all the instructions and prescriptions my doctor provided, and thankfully theres no pain. But this odd taste is concerning. What could it be, and should I do something about it?
Could be a sign of infection. It's good that you have no pain, but the odd taste may indicate an issue. I recommend using a mouthwash containing chlorhexidine gluconate to help with the taste and prevent infection. You can also take antibiotics like amoxicillin to treat any infection that may be present. Make sure to follow the dosage instructions provided by your doctor. If the odd taste persists, it's best to consult your dentist for further evaluation.

I've been thinking about cosmetic jaw surgery to improve my smile and fix my jaw alignment, but I'm not sure if it's worth it. What are the pros and cons of getting this done? Also, how much does it usually cost in India? I'm a bit worried about recovery and potential risks but really want a better-looking jawline.
This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.
