Visitor asks:

Hello,
On Tuesday my dentist removed excess gum tissue over a wisdom tooth. He placed two yellow strips on the wound. Yesterday I managed to remove one, but the other remained inside. The strip is now white and disintegrating (if it is still the strip at all), and I cannot remove it because it is strongly "stuck" to the wound. Will anything be wrong if the strip remains inside?
Thank you for your answer.

Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:

Dear Sir/Madam!

The strip needs to be removed.

Have a nice day!
