I had gum grafting 2 ½ days ago. After hearing and reading about pain and complications that could occur I was a bit concerned. Also, I have anxiety when people work on my mouth or throat, due to past medical conditions. She was great! While getting my procedure done she was training a new assistant, Rochelle, who was very nice and calming. I followed Dr. Madden’s instructions and iced the area for the rest of the day, I even stayed in bed for an additional day to not be tempted to over do it. I have minimal swelling, and no bruising! I will be coming back to her for more of my much needed grafting. Thanks Dr. Madden! p. s. the name on this is wrong, my name is Karen J. Brown.
