Itâs impossible to identify what exact percentages of plum and apricot are in each (though many online sources try), but a pluot is more plum than apricot and has a smooth, plumlike skin, while an aprium is more apricot than plum and has a fuzzy, apricotlike skin.
What is Dry Socket. The most common and painful complication in the healing of human extraction wounds is called as Dry socket. Dry socket is also called as Alveolar osteitis, Alveolitis sicca dolorosa, Alveolalgia, Post-operative osteitis or localized acute alveolar osteomyelitis.
Although the extraction is necessary, the resulting trauma can increase the chances of dry socket. Previous infections such as periodontal disease or pericoronitis at the site of the extraction can predispose an individual to dry socket. Women have been found to develop a dry socket more so than men. This may be related to hormonal factors such as use of oral contraceptives or normal hormonal changes during a woman's cycle. Patients older than 30 years of age with impacted third molars have an increased risk of dry socket. With age, the jawbone becomes more dense and has less blood supply available.
