Had wisdom teeth pulled 4 days ago. Now I have liquid from mouth coming out of my nose?

Question

Had wisdom teeth pulled about 4 days ago. I'm supposed to use salt water to gargle 2 -3 times a day. When doing it yesterday i noticed an odd sensation of the water swishing thur my mouth then cheeks and than out my nose. I tried it again just to be sure and sure enough every time I gargle, the water drips out of my right nostril like a leaky faucet. It's the most disgusting sensation I've ever experienced! From what I can find on the internet it sounds like there is a hole now between my mouth and sinus cavity(GROSS!) Am I going to have to have another surgery to fix this?

Answer 1

Wow I have never heard of this before, but I would tell your dentist as soon as possible. It most likely has to do with your wisdom teeth, and there's a hole that one of your wisdom teeth was covering. You might just have to have that filled.
