Hello there,
I was just wondering if a dentist could help me please? I had 4 wisdom teeth out 11 days ago and dissolvable stitches were put in. Everything seems to be fine apart from some of the stitches still haven't dissolved yet. Is this normal? I'm worried that the stiches will start to get infected if they are in there too long, but am worried about pulling them out in case it hurts or they should still be in there!
There is a bad smell coming from the site of the extractions, even though I have been brushing normally for a few days now. There is also a slight ache on both sides of my lower jaw, which can be controlled with iboprufen and paracetamol. Does this sound normal?
Thank you for any advice you can give me,
Victoria
