Oh ok, I thought oral surgery meant by an Oral Surgeon, sorry! I am 44 Years Of Age and I heard it takes longer for people my age to heal. I do brush and floss just very carefully close to the hole. I bought a kids toothbrush so that I can brush better as adult ones are to big

It is important to make sure you are brushing and flossing all of your teeth thoroughly.... not aggressively, just as well as you possibly can. The build up of plaque can cause bacterial infection so you want to minimize that from happening.
What is a YAO??
