I had a tooth implant placed on Friday. Woke up to find a large clot over the area on Saturday. It dissipated through the day. Now I have small white flap, clearly dead tissue as it doesn t hurt a bit, in the area. Would like to pull it off. It s about the size of a pencil eraser. I probably should leave it alone. Anyway does this sound normal? It is otherwise healing great.
Hello, Thanks for your query.First I would like to tell you that it is a normal healing process, nothing to get worried. Clot formation and white area is healing tissue and this clot should be retained in the place. I would like to suggest you do not disturb the healing tissue and maintain good oral hygiene. One more thin if there will be severe pain of bleeding, then it will not be good sign, in this case you should take immediate medical help. As you provided the detail, nothing to get worried. Take Care. Chat Doctor.
