Wendy,
There are different materials used, but yes, one of them is a brown paste and it can be placed via a syringe. It will dissolve or fall out eventually but in the mean time it holds bacteria too. That's why in most cases, it is recommended that it be changed.
How does the site feel today?

Also, yes, he did irrigate it with a few syringes full of water or saline, tasted more like saline.
