Normal healing: If you haven't pain, swelling or bleeding, i would not be concerned.

The oral epithelium: Heals quickly and to have a portion of a blood clot slough at 9-10 days is not abnormal. As was previously mentioned by another doctor, no heavy bleeding, no pain, then there should be no concern.
