Yet Another Doctor

Angel had his orthodontist appointment yesterday. While we were there the Dr. discovered that Angel has some gum recession along the bottom front of his teeth. This is most likely because of Angel not having enough tissue. The Dr. referred us to a periodontist to see if he can get a graft. He is asking for a "free gingival graft" that is where they will take some tissue from the roof of the mouth and place it along the gum line. I don't know if Angel can spare any tissue from his palate.
