Hi M,
At the clinic early on with my flap/tongue problems they tried silver nitrate sticks for granulation with only minor results in my case. (search nitrate..it may work for you).
Some of my past problem was caused by rubbing on a bottom tooth.
Here are a few links with recent postings that may be of interest.
I had my 6 month check at the clinic last Friday and one with my oral surgeon the previous Monday.
Next visit with OS is in November I will discuss lasering as it is still an option he mentioned and I am keen to try it.
