I have been rinsing often with a salt water solution. I have been eating pretty good too. kinda on a normal diet and just chewing very carefully but i just noticed a minute ago that on my left bottom side it feels like the stitches came loose. I looked at it in the mirror and it looks like they did because I can see a hole. Its not bleeding or hurting or anything. Could this lead to a dry socket? what should I do? Is this normal and should I call the dentist tomorrow? Has this happened to you?[/quote] FAQ Keyword Search: Post Options Favorites Manager Notify me of new replies to this topic by email Notify me of new replies to this topic by private message Original Post kayyluhhh Posted at 9:04 pm on Nov. 23, 2008 I just got all four of my wisdom teeth out on friday and i have been doing pretty good. not too much swelling and i stopped bleeding the first day.

If not, you should be fine. kayyluhhh Posted at 9:09 pm on Nov. 23, 2008 Quote: from alastrxxna at 9:08 pm on Nov. 23, 2008 The stitches are supposed to melt away. I know they should but should it be this soon? Today is only the third day. alastrxxna Posted at 9:08 pm on Nov. 23, 2008 The stitches are supposed to melt away.
