Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXX.

Thanks for consulting Healthcare magic .
This is Dr. Priyanka Tiwari answering your query .

Read your query and understand your concern . As far as blood clot dislodgement is concerned it exposes the alveolar bone to oral environment and making it prone to infection . This inflammatory condition delays healing of socket . For this don't be scared, I would advise it is good to consult your oral surgeon for post extraction evaluation and take proper course of antibiotic prescribed by your dentist . In meantime you can apply cotton pellet dipped and squeezed in saline and place it over extraction socket . Take cold and soft diet . Avoid hot and spicy food .

Hope I have answered your query .
If you have further query I will be happy to help.
