Question:
A chunk came out after tooth extraction?
12 days ago I had a 2 teeth extracted. All of a sudden just now I had a lil lump come out of the one socket. It looks alot like a tiny chunk of chewed up beef or something & has a lil blood it looks like on it. My socket seems to be deeper now than what it has, but it is not hurting or anything. Is this normal or should I bring it to the attention of my dentist?
Answers:
It may be food that has been stuck there for a while, that can easily happen. If you're that worried, ask your densist. If the socket is no longer bleeding, chances are, you're fine. It should probably be as deep as the other.
