Coughing after wisdom tooth removal.

Dear Sir or Madam,

On March 17, 2011, I had two wisdom teeth extracted. I am still suffering from a persistent irritating cough (foreign body sensation) and a hoarse voice. My dentist said that's just how it is.

Is this really due to the tooth extraction, or have small pieces of the medication he placed in the socket at regular intervals slipped into my throat?

I have been taking cough and bronchial tea + bronchial drops every day for the past few days - still no improvement!

Thank you very much!
