What Is The Healing Process After Tooth Extraction?
Hi I got my tooth removed on Saturday and my blood clot where I got my tooth removed turn white,grey and alittle brown after two days after I got my tooth removed . Is it bad that it is white and grey and brown ? And how does the whole healing process work this is my first time getting my tooth removed?
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The healing process following extraction starts from the time soon after extraction. Following extraction, the blood will get clot in the socket, then it becomes hard to form a callus in weeks, later it calcifies to become a soft bone. This is how the socket heals. it takes around 15 days for the socket to close completely. The grey and brown colour of the clot formed at the site of extraction is normal. nothing to be panic. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
