Yes, you can put anbesol on the gums after a tooth has been extracted ONLY after 72 hours. The reason for the 3 day wait is because of the blood clot. Anbesol and other oral anesthetics can cause tissue damage and inflame the tissue. If the blood clot is ruptured you will develop dry socket.

Why do your dissolvable stitches smell in your mouth?

Dissolvable stitches in the mouth can develop an odor due to a combination of factors, including bacterial growth, food particles getting trapped, and the natural breakdown of the material used for the stitches. The moist environment of the mouth can encourage bacteria to thrive, leading to unpleasant smells. Additionally, as the stitches dissolve, they may release compounds that can contribute to the odor. Maintaining good oral hygiene can help minimize this issue.


Will people be able to see the holes in your mouth after getting teeth pulled?

Depending the area where you are having your teeth pulled people may only see a space but the actual "hole" where the tooth was pulled from heals over and is just like a regular gum area. Depending on WHERE they are pulled, no. The holes will close and your teeth will move up to fill those holes. If it is teeth in the back, they will eventually close. Usually they stitch the hols with dissolvable stitches.

I believe when this happens, your mouth will start to bleed, or become aggitated, call your dentist IMMEDIATLY when this happens! they also tend to fall out after a few days of healing.
