Does this healing look normal? There is a white thing where the implant was placed, what is that? (Photo)

I had a tooth pulled and implant placed last Friday. I had a stitch come out today. I called the office they said no blood or pain then it should be ok. Where the tooth was pulled is this white thing, it doesn't ooze or puss and no pain. Is that normal or need stitches?
