30-40% of the time the studies show
If the extraction was complicating and took an extended period of time it may cause jaw pain
Depending on the tooth. Sometimes there is no pain. Wisdom teeth and molar extractions may cause pain especially if the extraction was surgical.
Yes
If an extraction is complicated and pressure is applied it is normal to feel jaw pain
Some jaw pain is normal after a tooth extraction. Please make sure you are following the post-operative recommendations of the treating doctor. If the pain is too intense for you, or is lasting longer than 2 weeks, contact the office right away.
There are too many variables to answer this question. I would suggest calling an oral surgeon for an evaluation.
It all depends on type of the extraction. You should contact the doctor who did your extraction.
Yes, usually a bit sore for a few days.
Symptoms related to the jaw joint (TMJ) and jaw muscles are pretty common after extractions.
Yes, some amount of discomfort is normal after an extraction. warm salt water rinses are helpful the day after the extraction for several days. you might also find ibuprofen (anti inflammatory) to be helpful.
It is not abnormal. Stay on soft foods. Everything heals in time.
Yes, jaw pain can be very normal after an extraction, especially if it was a back tooth. Just give it some more time to heal (sometimes a couple weeks), and you should be back to normal.
Certainly depending on the procedure a patient can be sore from the extraction site , from the TMJ (the joints of the mandible ) and lower yaw.
Things to be aware is if pain decreases after 1 week and practically gone after two, the process of healing and inflammation will increase up to the third day +,_ and will start to decrease after that .

Yes, jaw pain can be expected. If, the pain is severe 3 or 4 days AFTER the extraction you should contact the dentist. You may have a "dry Socket"
Jaw pain is one of the possible complications after a third molar extraction. The severity of it depends on how long or how wide your mouth was open during the extraction.
