Should I go back to dentist in Mexico for follow up appointment? Six days ago had extract, implant and Bone Graft on tooth 19

Asked By:snigut in Tucson, AZ

Stitches appear to have dissolved and have very little, if any pain. Area is just a bit tender. Concern is a flap of skin (it almost feels as if it's on a hinge) that I can place tongue under and lift. I also feel particles from time to time that i assume is bone graft material in mouth. I have two days of antibiotics left and dentist told me to return in three months unless problems arrive. Don't think there is any infection but who knows?
