I had a wisdom tooth extracted by an oral surgeon yesterday.
The problem is that today as I was brushing my teeth (quite softly at
that spot) I messed up the sewing he did there (sorry if the
terminology is wrong.) I called and his secretary told me he isn't
there and advised washing my mouth carefully after every meal so
nothing gets in that spot.
Could a removed sewing cause complications? |

Unless you have a big gaping hole with the previously sutured flaps of
tissue really wavin' around there, it's probably no big deal.
I would hope your surgeon returns your call, if only as a courtesy. If
not, call again.
