I had a tooth extracted last Tuesday. They had to cut my gums during the procedure. I have stitches that disolve. They are very annoying and I can feel them rubbing against my cheek and my gums. So how much longer until they are gone?

It will take a week's time or 10 days if alternate stitches are removed.
