Had step 1 of my implant journey yesterday and I'm a bit anxious over a stitch dangling. Not sure of timeline for stitch to come out. Reached out to dentist but being a Friday its a no go. Should I be worried or is this common? Can it wait till Monday?
 
Probably hasn't been trimmed off properly. It won't do any harm leaving it other than it driving you nuts.
 
Thanks! How soon should stitches fall out, its been 48 hrs and I think I'm close.
 
Bad news, it should be at least a week :(
