Wisdom Teeth & Stitches?!
Question: Wisdom Teeth & Stitches?
I had my wisdom teeth (4 impacted) removed exactly a week ago. 3 days ago I needed new stitches due to excessive bleeding. I don't think the oral surgeon used dissolvable stitches this time. He told me that if they were bugging me, I could trim them up as they get loose.
Will these stitches eventually loosen up and fall out, or do I need to go get them removed? [Stitches already fell out of ONE wisdom tooth 'hole']. Thanks!

Answers:
If they are not dissolvable you will need to have them taken out. Don't worry I take them out all the time on patients
