Hi. I'm 9 days post op and the last couple of days I've had very sore red bleeding gums. Tonight it was so sore to clean my teeth it looks like my gums are receeding?!? Has anybody else had this and does anybody have any advice? Thanks
Omg. Did you consult a doctor?
Man, I'm afraid that you're a bit late. Anyways, I heard that it isn't an average side effect. As far as I know, it can be related to the lack of vitamin C or other essential nutrients. So, if you deal with this problem, you better review your diet and consult your dentist. I didn't experience this thing, even if I got dental implants one year before my gastric sleeve surgery. Still, I had a detailed general checkup ahead of it and even followed a course of antibiotics. It wasn't the most pleasant experience, but the result was certainly worth it.
