I had all of my teeth extracted 2 days ago, and got dentures. There is a large flap of skin with blood in it located above where the eye tooth was. I am taking antibiotics every 4 hours. Should I stop wearing the dentures? Do I need to go back to the dentist, or will this abate on its own?
Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query. As far as the flap along with a blood clot beneath it is quite common following extraction. Do not wear denture for 2-3days. Because the denture might irritate that area and results in delayed wound healing. Continue the course of antibiotics. You will be fine in 2-3days.  Do saline gargling. I hope I have answered your query. Take care.
