-- Posted by kayyluhhh 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. 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? -- Posted by HeavenShallBurn at 9:07 pm on Nov. 23, 2008 Call the dentist. Never happened to me though. -- Posted by alastrxxna at 9:08 pm on Nov. 23, 2008 The stitches are supposed to melt away. -- Posted by kayyluhhh 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. -- Posted by Khadgar at 9:17 pm on Nov. 23, 2008 Are you bleeding profusely from the socket? If not, you should be fine. -- Posted by Catalyst11 at 9:21 pm on Nov. 23, 2008 I would call the dentist
