Its not hurting - but where I got the tooth out, there is now a soft
black spot.
What is that do you think? I would love to get an appointment just to
get it all checked out, but "emergency-only"

I'm waiting for the Dental Nurse to ring back.
Well, it certainly may be dry socket. Pain was what was missing from
your initial description.
Do call again. It is possible to pack the socket with a medicated
dressing and get significant relief.
Dry socket isn't dangerous, just a big PIA (or rather mouth).
Feel better,
Steve
