Lower Semi-impacted wisdom tooth removal

I have undergone lower horizontally semi impacted wisdom tooth extraction during surgery the wisdom tooth that was being extracted broke into pieces so my oral surgeon removed the pieces & stitched that area but I feel that a teeth piece is still left inside that stitched area how can I find out if there is a teeth piece in or no?

The answer to your question is quite simple, either visit the same dentist if nt some other and explain your query to them. He/she will then take a radiograph which will clearly show if there is a remaining piece or not.
