Presentation
Acute osteomyelitis of the superior maxilla is an unusual disease but presents a rather typical appearance in infants. In the recorded cases the same early signs and symptoms have been present. [jamanetwork.com]
Since alveolar osteitis is not primarily an infection, there is not usually any pyrexia (fever) or cervical lymphadenitis (swollen glands in the neck), and only minimal edema (swelling) and erythema (redness) is present in the soft tissues surrounding [en.wikipedia.org]

- Pain
The dressings are usually stopped once the pain is lessened. [en.wikipedia.org]
There are redness, swelling, pain and tenderness over the cheek of the infected side. The inflammation goes on to suppuration, and rupture usually occurs below the inner canthus, at which site a discharging fistula remains. [jamanetwork.com]
It is basically a focal osteomyelitis without suppuration and is accompanied by severe pain (alveolalgia) and foul odor. [fpnotebook.com]
Patients complain of the expressed pain syndrome in the injured jaw, strengthening of morbidity at a smykaniye of teeth, swallowing. During survey reveal grazes, wounds in okolorotovy area. [medicine-for-you.com]

- Dentist
During clinical inspection the dentist reveals a swelling of soft fabrics, violation of integrity of integuments of a prirotovy zone. Opening of a mouth is complicated. [medicine-for-you.com]
[…] individuals, based on a clinical assessment of their conditions, who are at clear risk may benefit from antibiotics.[12] There is also evidence that antifibrinolytic agents applied to the socket after the extraction may reduce the risk of dry socket.[5] Some dentists [en.wikipedia.org]
- Surgical Procedure
Postoperative pain is also worse than the normal discomfort which accompanies healing following any minor surgical procedure. [en.wikipedia.org]
Jaw & Teeth
- Halitosis
Some patients may develop short term halitosis,[5] which is the result of food debris stagnating in the socket and the subsequent action of halitogenic bacteria.[10] The main factors involved in the development of dry socket are discussed below. [en.wikipedia.org]
Eyes
- Lacrimation
While a gastric disturbance may be the first sign of impending trouble, the first indication of the location of the disease is the edema and swelling of the eyelid, without involvement of the conjunctiva or lacrimal sac. [jamanetwork.com]
Treatment
Change of an alveolar shoot - treatment [medicine-for-you.com]
Avoiding drinking through a straw or spitting forcefully as this creates a negative pressure within the oral cavity leading to an increased chance of blood clot instability.[9] Treatment[edit] Treatment is usually symptomatic,[5] (i.e., pain medications [en.wikipedia.org]

Prognosis
Curettage of the socket increases the pain and whether it is of overall benefit is debated.[1][14] Prognosis[edit] If a dry socket occurs, the total healing time is increased. [en.wikipedia.org]

Epidemiology
The pain may last for seven to forty days.[1][2] Epidemiology[edit] Overall, the rate of dry socket is about 0.5–5% for routine dental extractions,[2][4][5] and about 25–30% for impacted mandibular third molars (wisdom teeth which are buried in the bone [en.wikipedia.org]

Therefore, cold fluids and foods are encouraged, which facilitate clot formation and prevent its disintegration. Avoiding smoking. [en.wikipedia.org]
