I had a tooth extraction. Can you tell me what the sharp bits are in the hole?

Alex,
After a tooth extraction there is a hole. In the hole there are often sharp pieces of bone left in there. As time goes on your body will re-shape the bone to be smooth. Has your dentist mentioned replacing your tooth? I would love to know what options he’s given you.
