A member asked:
Im 10 days post op (first molar extraction) and i feel like the top clot has broken down leaving me with a red hole. should i worry? i do not have pain?

Healing is normal and no pain is a sign of no dry socket .Make sure you keep area clean by rinsing with PEROXIDE and water at least twice a day.
