Is it okay if you swallow a stitch after getting your wisdom tooth pulled?
I had a wisdom tooth pulled (lower left) four days ago and I was told that today I can begin eating more hard food, slowly though. I had a light lunch and afterwards I felt that one of the stitches (they're NOT dissolvable) was loose. Now it seems that it came completely undone and I swallowed it and I can feel it in my throat! Should I be concerned?
Dissolvable stitches break apart, they don't disappear. It would not be unusual to swallow a piece and not know it. Drink some water to wash it down. All things will come to pass.
There is great wisdom in not answering this (that is like this); however, since I am in stitches thinking abou this, I must "speak," you have no worries. All (of these) things will indeed pass...
I did, and suffered no adverse consequences. At the Mutter Museum in Philly there is a huge display of "Random Things People Swallowed" and wow, yeah, a piece of medical stitching is going to go down just fine.

What are some good foods to eat after you've had a wisdom tooth (or teeth!) removed?So I recently had a wisdom tooth out, and eating was a literal pain. I'm thankfully back to normal now, but it was quite terrible to be restricted to Jell-O and pudding if I didn't want to spend an hour regretting...

I've got a wobbly wisdom tooth, will it come out on it's own?It's actually been wobbly for about a year now! I fear dentists, and to be honest my teeth are a bit of a state. I'm 47 years old, is it possible to have something done that makes them look more presentable?
