What Does White Circle On The Palate After Wisdom Teeth Removal Indicate?

Hi
I had my wisdom teeth pulled a week ago and now i have a white circle dot on the top part of my hard palate....should i worry? i asked the surgeon who did it and just said to leave it alone.... but its getting bigger.... he said i might have gotten it from all the tugging while i was sedated.... please help what else can it be?

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

As per your complain a white circle dot on hard palate that is getting better seems to be due to traumatic Ulcer that might have caused due to injury by any instrument during extraction or can be due to tugging..

It can also be a side effect of Medication if you are taking any post extraction..

Nothing to worry, start doing warm saline gargles..
Take a Vitamin B complex tablet daily..
Avoid spicy and hard foods..
If there is pain Apply numbing gel containing Lignocaine..
Gargle with antiseptic mouthwash..

Hope this helps..

Regards.
