Is it normal to have craters in your gums after teeth have been pulled?
Question:
Answers:
Yes, that is completely normal after an extraction. It will take a few weeks for the tissue to heal in that area. It will take approximately 6-9 months for the bone in the area to completely heal.

yes, its not bone, but a scab. the craters will probably take a few months to heal properly and get smooth
Yes, it's normal. Don't worry the holes with your tongue or try to suck the blood out.
Tissue will "knit" itself across the gap and the holes will close, but that takes considerable time. "Pretend to be patient."
It would not be uncommon to see bone after an extraction. But it would not be a problem unless it was very painful.
Usually after a week the bone will be covered up by some whitish/ reddy mucousy looking area.
It will probalby take at least 2 weeks before gum starts growing over your moon crater. yes, that goes away after a while
