Hi,
My insurance covers the sleeve surgery 100%. I want to get it but I have a concern. I have periodontal disease and my bottom gums have receded so bad. I've been getting deep cleanings. The dentist said I may lose my bottom 4 front teeth. As we continue with the cleaning they are looking better but still unsure. I read on the internet that a lot of people have problems with their teeth post surgery and lose some or a lot of their teeth. Should I be concerned mine will get worse or definitely lose them? Thankyou!!
