Wisdom teeth?

I had all four of my wisdom teeth taken out last monday. It%26#039;s been a week and today I noticed this skin hanging in 1 of the sockets. It doesn%26#039;t hurt and it feels like a grain of cooked rice. It is kind of bugging me and I keep trying to loosen it with my tough. Should I try to pull it off???

Don%26#039;t pull it off it could lead to infection.. sounds like you may have what they call a dry socket.. just call your dentist.. in the mean time gargle with warm salt water.
Reply:NO..it is just the skin healing over the empty sockets. Once they heal that should go away
Reply:sounds like a stitch they use desolving stiches and they start to hang out and tickleit sucks and makes me gag%26#039; try to trim it
Reply:did they put in dis solvable stitches in? because it could be one of the stitches hanging out and i got mine out last week also and a piece of gum was hanging from my socket. it just fell out by itself. it%26#039;s like dead gums when they did the surgery they cut ur gums and they fall out later in lil pieces i mean will fall out. u might think they r food but its dead gums
Reply:It is probably healing, however if you feel like food is caught in there just take a wet q-tip and gently clean out, if it was a dry socket it would be very painful. Keep rinsing with warm H2O, like 4 times daily.
