Hi!! i just got all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed 5 days ago and today while brushing my teeth, a stitch came undone and fell out of my mouth. there’s no bleeding or pain (apart from normal pain from healing). should i be concerned??

No this is normal. We usually place resorbable sutures, which tend to come out by themselves. No need to worry
