Food stuck in my wisdom teeth extraction
I got my wisdom
teeth removed about two weeks ago and the thing is I got food stuck in one of the holes. I have tried every thing to get the food out to no avail. Is it okay will the healing process push the food out or should I go back to the
dentist to get them to remove it?

Try using warm salt water and rising out really well. If you still can not get the food out I would just see the dentist to be on the save side.

Have you tried using any dental floss? That should help remove any food that is stuck. Just do it carefully so as to not hurt your extraction site.
