I had my wisdom teeth removed 4 days ago and since then my tongue is pasty and yellow. Is this normal?

Hello Ma'am,

Yes, this is normal.

This is because your mouth is not closing as well and is in the process of healing.

Are you able to gargle with water and drink more?

Yes! I drank more water and gargled more often in the last 24 hours and the symptoms have decreased.

Happy day,
