Periodontics issue
I had removed teeth 28 as it it's position is bad . After removal and followup suture removal I had weird tight feeling and heaviness there .
Than post one month CBCT says
1. Thin shape Palatal cortical plate margin with small discontinuity at apex of palate socket
2. Mild periodontitis in the existing posterior teeth .
So does it mean I STILL HAD INFECTION THERE and need dental treatment again
