Hi Doctor, today I had removed my wisdom teeth left lower jaw. It was a hospital and they involve students for practising. The student had put stitches after removal. My parents have earlier removed teeth but not have done stitches. 1. Is it common to put the stitch or could it have been avoided? 2. They asked me to come after 5 days to remove stitch. Are the remove type of stitch still followed or stitches that dissolve by itself are used? Kindly provide your suggestions as I doubt if this has been not handled well due to less experience. Should I consult experienced doctors for removal of the stitch? Thanks!
