Bone Graft: The gums in my front teeth have not healed, should I be worried?

User Avatar
Hey_rosie
i had bone graft 12 days ago in my upper jaw. The bums in my front teeth have not healed, they are flapping & I can see my bone. The stitches dissolved so there's nothing holding them shut. Is this normal? Should I wait until they completely close before I eat solids? I dont have pain, just discomfort from my guns flapping. Please advise im very worried
