The skin will begin to grow over that area making it more difficult to remove the stitches. Also, infection could gather there making a perfect entrance for the infection to go systemically & attack organs. That is why people with heart trouble have to take preventive antibiotics before any visits to the dentist. To prevent the spread of infection to already weakened organs.

They usually put in desolvable ones.
Leave those kind alone.
If they aren't desolvable... then you need to see your oral surgeon.
