Stitch fell out of wisdom tooth extraction?!
Question:
Stitch fell out of wisdom tooth extraction?
i got my wisdom teeth removed 9 days ago and the bottom left stitch (dissolving stitches) came out a few minutes ago.. theres still a pretty decent gap there.. i was wondering if i need to see my oral surgeon about this?... theres no pain nor bleeding.. theres been a gap 4 awhile before stitch fell out... but im not sure if the stitch was meant to come out so early
Answers:
Asl long as there is no bleeding or pain, you should be OK if you should start to bleed bite down gently on a piece of gauze to stop any bleeding.
Check to see if a blood clot has formed in the socket because it there isn't the chances of this becoming a painful dry socket is highly.
Good Luck
