Managing Bone Fragments After Tooth Extraction

Bone fragments in gums post-extraction are uncommon; see a dentist. Steps:

1. Examination & diagnosis – Visual + X-ray.
2. Local anesthesia – If sensitive.
3. Removal – Tweezers/forceps, curette, or minor surgery if deep.
4. Post-care – Clean site, antiseptic rinse, pain management, follow-up.

Follow dentist instructions; maintain oral hygiene. Contact dentist for persistent pain/swelling/unusual symptoms.
