Yeah, that's my mouth. No, that's not Silly Putty... though it sure looks like it. It is some kind of putty. Yesterday I went to my periodontist, and he did a bit of gum grafting. He cut a little tissue from the roof of my mouth and grafted it onto an area where the gum was receding and exposing the root of one tooth. There's another bit of putty on the roof of my mouth where he took the "patch" from. It's just to protect the sore areas, and it'll come off in a day or two. I've had this procedure done before... 17 years ago... only I had 6 or 8 done that time. So this was a breeze compared to that, although that time was not such a big deal, either. Not even all that sore. I go back next week to get the stitches out. Amazing what they can do to hold you together nowadays, huh? ;-)
(I do put the most interesting views of myself on this blog, don't I?) ;-)
