Dry socket occurs usually due to the dislodgement of the blood clot that forms after extraction. It may also occur due to traumatic extraction in the dentist has done too much scooping of the extraction socket. That socket becomes very painful and sensitive to food and even air. In your case, it looks like dentist has not done the job,but the tooth has fallen out on its own. Did u see the entire root come out as well? There are chances that only the top(crown) portion of tooth that was hollow and decayed tooth may have fallen out, and root is still inside. In that case the remaining tooth maybe be sharp and hurt you. The pain you have may also be bcoz of infection in that tooth. In any case the best bet would be to see a dentist.
