Question

I just got bone grafting for future implant 6 days ago. However I think I can see bone and that the gum has has been lost. I'm getting really worried if then I want be able to place the provisional tooth and that the bone grafting is failing

Amber Garcia, DDS · Answer

That look like healing tissue, not bone. If it was bone, it would be extremely painful. First of all, don't pull your lip out like that. It will heal better and faster if you aren't stretching it and putting undo pressure in that area. Secondly, it takes 2-4 weeks to fully heal. Give it some more time and it will start to look much better. If you are truly concerned, go see your dentist to make sure everything is ok.
