Ok. That is great that she seems a bit better now and is able to sleep. It is good that she has eaten since getting home. At this time, her scratching could be due to a topical irritation. It shouldn't be a reaction to the dental procedure or the medications used for it. Sometimes the skin can be irritated as they were on a heating pad during the procedure. I would keep a very close eye on the skin for areas of wetness, redness, scabbing or continued discomfort. If any of these are seen, then a recheck specifically focusing on that is needed. Could she be having discomfort post the dental from that extraction? That is a suspicion. At this time, I would let her sleep and be as she is. I would continue to follow any post op instructions from your vet. If she stops eating or the pain persists, then I would definitely contact them about it for her to be started on some pain medication. Some can definitely be more uncomfortable than others post dentals.
