Yes there is a problem. It means that you have a major cavity and you should have your wisdom tooth checked right away. The dentist would either tell you to do a filling on it if it is out enough and if the cavity is not too deep. The other alternative would be to extract it.

If the tooth is well out and the cavity is into the pulp chamber (nerve), you might save your tooth by doing a root canal on it. That needs to be discussed with the dentist.

You just had your wisdom tooth out After 2 days there appears to be quite a substatial hole in your gum through which you can still see some white tooth What should you do?

Of course there is going to be a substantial hole, that's the socket where the tooth was. As for the white you are seeing, that would be part of the jaw bone and was supporting the tooth that is now extracted. Your dentist can remove some of it, if you want but its not necessary!

Is it normal if your friend's wisdom teeth are coming through and today you looked in because she said she was in pain and you saw a big black hole behind the bottom of the new tooth?

Your friend needs to see a dentist. It is very likely that they'll extract (pull) the tooth because the black hole means that the tooth has rotted out. It also causes bad breath. Bad dental hygiene can cause heart disease.
