Answers:
If the extraction did not require flaps ( When a flap is done they peel the skin of the bone to get to the tooth) then there may not be a need for sutures because there is nothing to suture, then tissue does not stretch so you can not pull it over the hole to close!. On avg most people heal with in two weeks, but for some it can take up to 6 weeks!.!.

When I had my wisdom teeth pulled it took at least a couple of months for the holes to fill back in!. It's a miserable feeling!.

To help keep the holes clean, make sure you swish water around your mouth after eating!.

Hope you feel better soon!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

About a month!. Even with sutures you would have holes until the gum's grow back!. It's not a big deal as this happens to everyone!. After a week or so you'll not notice them any longer!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

healing depends on you and how well you keep things clean rinse your moth with warm salt water often and it will heal fasterWww@Answer-Health@Com
