Yes, it is normal to see a white appearance in the extraction site a few hours after a tooth extraction. This is often due to the formation of a blood clot and the initial stages of healing, which can include the presence of fibrin, a protein that helps form blood clots. However, if you notice excessive swelling, pain, or a foul odor, it is advisable to contact your dentist as these may indicate an infection or other complications.

The white stuff is normal and is the blood clot. It appears white because saliva has leached out the red blood cells. There may be a slight smell due to the organic material (blood clot) fermenting in a moist, warm environment (your mouth). This is part of the healing process and will fade away.

Is it normal to have new swelling one month after a tooth extraction?

Try calling up your dentist. He or she may want to hear about it and see what they can do for you. If you need to do something to help it, he or she will be able to tell you. No it is not normal to have swelling a month after the extraction. It might be food that got stuck in the hole and that is causing a minor infection. It might also be another tooth beside the extracted one that is causing the swelling. Only a dentist can make te right diagnosis by checking it.
