What happened to the hole after the tooth was removed?

After the removal of stitches, the local tissues are not completely flattened and the extraction socket still exists, so it will show as a hole. This is because after the extraction, the local healing of the extraction socket needs a long time to be carried out, generally in about three weeks, the local soft tissues can basically grow flat and only then will it show as a hole reduction. If the local bone tissue fully recovers, it takes 3-6 months to rebuild, so a localized hole after tooth extraction is a normal performance and does not require special concern. If there are symptoms of discomfort or significant pain, you can visit the clinic again for treatment or dental radiographs.
