Hi, my sister had a tooth removed yesturday and she is abit worried as it does keep bleeding but her main worry is that she can see a white spot where the old tooth was. She says it is Very painfull. Will she be okay or should she see a doctor or go back to the dentist? Thanks for the helpScott
Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting Chat Doctor, I have gone through your query, as you have painful gum and white spot in place of removed tooth don't worry that can be periodontal flap of tooth, or it can be due to Chat Doctor.  If socket is painful and foul smell is there then consult dentist for irrigation of socket and Zinc oxide eugenol pack. In meantime, you can do Betadine gargle two - three times a day Hope it will help you
