I had an alveoplasty done 3 days ago after a wisdom tooth extraction made my jaw shift and make a spicule shoot out the back of my jaw anyways during the alveoplasty she sutured up the cut she made but couldn't suture the hole that was left from my bone poking through the gums were to thin so the stitch wouldn't hold

My question mainly is will my gums heal she said they would but I am freaking out over my jawbone still being exposed it's smooth and not spiked
And the thought of going through another surgery is awful and I'm just scared
I am on a soft food diet for quite awhile please help me out with advice all I am seeing is that gums don't grow back but all the links are for receding gums which don't apply to this.
Please help!
