I was at the dentistry a week ago and they stitched the top of my mouth after pulling two teeth and exposing the ones under (or I guess over) them. Two days ago they removed the stitches and put two little metal cubes in the injured area (I think it was to stop the bleeding), they called it a word that in English means “buttons” but maybe it’s called something else in English, and when the attached them they used a beeping flashy machine, while using it the covered my mouth with orange glass, maybe to remove blue light?
My question is what was that machine doing?

It doesn’t sound like what you’re talking about, but they do use a flashing blue (ultra violet) light to cure composite fillings. If you have tooth coloured filings, it could be that.
