How do you get bone fragments out of your gums after tooth extraction?
It is best to let your dentist remove these fragments. It is most likely pieces of a tooth rather than bone. Rinsing with warm salt water will help the healing of your gums. After a tooth removal, as the inflammation goes away and your gums shrink, some fragments may push their way through the gum. This is usually related to a tooth that was broken during its removal.
