Should I seek assistance immediately if the healing cap of my implant has come off?

Q. I am in the process of having an implant to replace a missing molar. I am in Scotland for holiday. The healing cap came out on Christmas Eve. I have tried to find a dentist but most are closed until 4/5/ January. will it be Ok to wait until I return to London 4 January or how can I find a dentist in Berwick On Tweed to replace it now – I have the healing cap.,
A. I’m sure it will be fine if you leave it out although you may need some very minor surgery to uncover the implant if the gum grows ove rthe access hole to the implant
