What Causes Coming Off Of Small Flat Piece Of Dried Blood?

I broke a blood vessel in the roof of my mouth 2 days ago. The ER
Dr. cauterized it w/ silver nitrate. A small (pea sized) flat piece of what looked like dried blood with a silver center JUST came off. It is not bleeding at this time. Is this normal for the piece to come off?
