I had it...It's not that bad at all, chill out. I had it done when I was around 13 years old. Same as the rest, had the tissue cut from the roof of my mouth, they fill it to heal and it pops out when it's good and healed. As for the area where the tissue is placed, a protective piece is put in place and you don't have to look at it until it's healed. <br /><br />I've had jaw surgery at 15, 1 cm of bone removed from each sides of my upper jaw, bottom jaw slightly moved, plate in the roof of my mouth, pins and plates everywhere and wait for it... I also have a titantium chin. And no I was not in a car accident, I had TMJ and my jaw was starting to shift backwards so I had all 4 wisdoms removed and braces put BACK ON for another year and then surgery. Worst pain ever. I have Frankenstein scars all along upper and lower jaw lines, a numb spot in my chin from nerve damage and a cool story to tell. It was hell not eating for 6 weeks, the smells of food and cravings are out of this world. Lost about 30 lbs and went back to school with a swollen face that didn't truly come down for 8 months. And I was modelling at the time so swollen face pictures it was, it was grand! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6441168213084499367.post-32178310313125810842014-03-12T15:08:49.477-04:002014-03-12T15:08:49.477-04:00I had this surgery done too on my two lower front ...I had this surgery done too on my two lower front teeth (sounds like the same area your dentist pointed out). It was not awful at all. I was more scared going in than I needed to be. One tip I was given was to bring an ipod and listen to music to take my mind off it. I didn't do that, but did end up clenching a stress ball through the entire thing and that made me feel better. Good luck!

Not as bad as it sounds, honest. My dentist also said it's her best patients who have this issue (from brushing too hard).

You have no need to, but I find it slightly amusing.<br /><br />B) I feel for you. I loathe going to the dentist and have put it off for years at a time. Not so much now but it is still panic inducing. Squigglesnoreply@blogger.com
