It is a good idea to go back and have the doctor evaluate the healing. Not all offices do that.
Absolutely! The dentist that extracted them should have a follow-up appointment. After that, you should keep up on your 6-month recalls/cleanings to maintain your dental health.
Yes the dentist Would usually want to see you within 1-2 weeks to check how the extraction sites are healing .
