[|Human|] I had all 4 wisdom teeth extracted this past Monday (currently Friday night). Everything seems to be healing extremely well except I ve recently noticed small holes in my gums where the bottom teeth once were. Is this normal or should I be concerned about the possibility of dry sockets? Also, how long would this typically take to heal? I uploaded a picture of the gum area. Thanks
[|AI|]  Hello and welcome to ChatDoctorIt has been four days only since you got your wisdom teeth extracted. After extraction of the tooth a space is created where the teeth once were present. This space will initially be filled with blood and slowly the granulation tissue will grow into it. Granulation tissue is fibrous tissue with newly erupted blood vessels. Slowly entire area will be converted into a firm soft tissue as your gums. So, there is nothing to worry. Do not be over concerned with that area. Leave it on its own to heal. In the meanwhile you can take saline gargles and painkillers if it hurts. In case there is excessive pain you can report it to your dentist to rule out infection. Thanks and take care Chat Doctor.
