I had a tooth extraction 2 weeks back, now it looks like this...it is not fully covered, is this meant to be like this or something is not right ? There is no pain but i feel skin moving while drinking. Is this a normal process?

Hi please attach pictures of the extraction site
The skin moving is not an issue but please maintain proper oral hygiene and do not allow any food lodgement in the site of extraction so as to prevent infection.
Hi,
The tissues will close with time. There is nothing to worry. It is advisable to visit the dentist for a review to avoid food lodgment and infection.
Kindly attach a picture.
