I thought that there was food stuck in my gums from when I got my wisdom teeth out last month and it turns out it was a piece of gauze from when they packed it when I got dry socket.
I thought the gauze had come out the day after they put it in.
I had been trying to pull it out for over a week now and I just couldn't get it. My dental insurance ran out when I turned 21 (last Monday) and I couldn't afford to go back to the dentist so I was trying so hard to get it out myself. I finally got it out tonight and now theres an even bigger hole in my gums and it feels so weird. The gauze was so gross too. It was all covered in blood and it made my mouth bleed. It was in there for over 2 weeks.
I sure hope that hole starts to heal soon. I know it takes about 6 months for it to fully heal but its really annoying and painful.
