9 days post-wisdom tooth extraction & dissolvable stiches - 3 sites closed, 4th big gaping hole (not painful) = normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The open hole could be from a large tooth that was extracted and is normal .No pain is good sign that no dry socket is present. Keep area clean by rinsing with peroxide and water and go back to dentist foe a post op. visit.
