No, I don't have a bad taste in my mouth. The white stuff looks like soggy bits of rice. I smash it with my fingers and there is no odor from it. It appears every now and then. I am wondering if this is the bone graft material that turned from being a hard grainy type substance to this soggy like material. Is this normal? I have more check ups with the perio specialist who did the surgery, but I feel as if he is not concerned about it enough. I don't want to go through this again, in say 3 or 4 months down the road. I'm not in any pain physically just financially. This surgery was a surprise and unexpected. I still cannot believe I had to get it. I only had one cavity in my life.
Any suggestions or advice is greatly appreciated.
