What causes swelling on the middle tooth and brown stuff on it?
Patient: i had oral surgery,the dentist thought i had sists behind my front teeth.i had the skin pulled back and 3 stitches put in.i had this done last monday ,the swelling on 2 our going down but the middle one has not and has brown stuff on it .should i go back to the dentist Doctor: Hello, Thank you for consulting with HCM.After surgery the swelling takes at-least 5 days in reducing and even pain is also present. It reduces after taking proper medications.ould waiThis brown stuff can be the granulation tissue of socket as it is healing phase. So better you should wait for 5- 7 days and still if the swelling is present then go to the dentist for follow up.Hope it will help you.
