What Causes A Flap Of Gum Over Teeth After Wisdom Teeth Extraction?
I got all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed exactly week from now, and where my wisdom teeth were pulled there is yellowish, with brown dot,flap of gum and I took all my medicine and rinsing with my wash that I was prescribed! I think it s a flap of gum I tried to see if I would come out but it hurts so I stopped! I m worried that it might be infected gum what is it?
Thanks fro your query. I have gone through your query. Nothing to worry, the yellowish spot can be a healing ulcer or an healing wound. Nothing to be panic, you can apply topical analgesic like choline salicylate. Do saline gargling. If pain persists even after this. then consult your oral surgeon and get it evaluated. I hope i have answered your query. Take care
