if you are talking about the extraction socket then it can be the clot. it helps in healing and prevent the socket from getting infected. this is normal. for more information on do's and don'ts after extraction you can visit the folowing link

You don't say how long ago you had the extraction, but if it was long enough for the area to heal a bit I am sure it is just dark blood clotting that you can see. avoid brushing this area, but keep it clean by using hot salt water mouth wash.Health Question & Answer

Dont brush over it! Its a clot and you don't want to loosen it and have it fall out and get dry socket. It will hurt forever if that happens. Health Question & Answer

It sounds like it is where the blood is clotting. Leave it alone. Don't brush that spot yet. Wait until it heals, or you could get dry socket.Health Question & Answer
