I also have a lot of scar tissue between tongue and flap.
This is mostly along what I call the seam but more at the front tip which rubs on the last tooth at the bottom.
4 teeth where removed to anchor the flap and it�s the 5th tooth that the �seam� rubs on.
I have had biopsies on the area for the last 5 years which come up clear for cancer.
Last biopsy (2 areas for the first time) in January showed mild dysplasia front but mild-moderate near the tonsils.
I will need to keep having yearly checks and most likely biopsies.
I mention this mainly because most of your signature could be mine Sally...except for age..55 at dx

Good luck with your visit and please let us know how it turns out.
