Joined: May 2009 Posts: 1,412 | Sorry, I have been away for awhile. Had a great turnout in the Bartlesville walk, raised over $4400 for OCF.
I had a connective tissue graft today to repair gum recession due to dry mouth. My perio said it went well, and did exactly what he wanted it to do. I have 5 stitches on the roof of my mouth, and 5 or 6 stitches along the gum line. I am back to eating mush for two weeks, nothing I have to chew until I go back to my post-op in two weeks. Hopefully this will take care of the pain I have been having.
