i have a couple more questions - i am now 11 days post op, and feeling better although i have a stitch still in the lower socket that is bothering me. i'm worried it won't dissolve or fall out - is this a legitimate concern? that the socket will heal with the stitch still in there?
also, i keep reading conflicting things - some things that says food that gets stuck in the socket can become infected if/when the gum grows over it. other things i read said gums form from the bottom-up, so if there is food in there, it won't impact the healing process and fall out on its own. what is it!?
i'm soo looking forward to eating a normal diet again.
i still have holes in the extraction sites, and anxious when they're gonna fill so i can stop panicking about an infection!
