I try really hard to not bother it, or pull or blow through them purposely. But you know how when you eat, you run your tongue across the top to get food debris out from between gums and cheeks, that's when air pills through. They also sort of alternate, one side will do it more and then stop and then the other side will start again. Its all very frustrating. I can't see far enough inside to tell how big the holes are or to tell if they're healing and getting smaller. If it's not better in another week I guess I'll try to go back to the surgeon. I'm unfortunately on Medicaid so there aren't many other choices open to me other than the one I've already seen. Thank you for your info! It is greatly appreciated. After searching the web and getting no realnresponse from the surgeon, it's nice to have some idea of what to expect.
