Had a molar extracted 6 weeks ago. Now I have a hard, sharp white thing poking out of my gums. It isn't in the extraction site, it's at the bottom to the side. I know its normal for healing gums to sort of rid themselves of tooth shards but is it normal 6 weeks after the extraction? Or is it something else? And is there anything I can do about it? It really hurts!Thank you!
Its not a wisdom tooth. I had my wisdoms removed 10 years ago. This is a small piece. Like the size of the tip of a ball point pen. All I want to know is if it's normal AFTER 6 weeks and what i can do about it.
