White chunk under suture following Wisdom Teeth Extaction
I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed Thursday. A suture was placed on the bottom left of my mouth where the most impacted wisdom tooth was. I woke up this morning with a dry spot in my mouth where the suture is, and now a white chunk has appeared directly under the suture. What is this ?
