My 7yo had two adjacent primary molars extracted 2 weeks ago. The wound still looks open with a large gap. Is this normal presentation, or should this have been sutured? Is there anything that should be done at this point? Photo attached.
Not a great photo, but appears to be healing well for 2 weeks. It is extremely rare for children to have poor healing unless they have a systemic disorder. Sutures are not always essential for such wounds.
