[|Human|] Basically around 10 months ago i had one of my teeth pulled out. The dentist told me that i would always have a gap there, but recently a tooth has started growing there, and basically i can feel a tiny piece of gum hanging....not sure if i should be worried or not
[|AI|]  Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor . I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns. As per your complaint it is not a common finding that a tooth regrow or re-erupt into the area where a tooth has been extracted and there is a possibility that any piece of tooth root might b left broken and extracted into the extraction socket and at times it can erupt and come over the surface. Secondly a tooth erupting in extraction socket is rarely possible if there was an impacted supernumerary [extra] tooth. I would therefore suggest you to consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like x-ray can help in diagnosis and then only any treatment can be done. Hope this helps. Regards.
