Hi there,
I had my tooth (back lower molar) extracted just under 4 days ago. I’ve been mainly eating soft foods but healing well and so tonight I decided to branch out and have some rice. I noticed at the end of my meal that there is some rice stuck in the tooth extraction site. I’ve tried salt water rinses and it isn’t coming out. It’s not painful, I’m just anxious about what will happen if I can’t get it out. I’ve been so careful up until now so I’m really annoyed at myself that maybe I tried too much too soon eating-wise.
