Just had some more gum surgery. Had some done in the fall with Dr. Hoffman that went quite well (just like this one). After 2 weeks, there is no sign of palette tissue removal. I could not be happier with the work. My gums are beefier and healthier. Do not wait for your dentist to recommend gum surgery. Take Charge and go straight to a periodontist (Dr. Hoffman is a great choice). Now is a great time during social distancing and mask wearing for recovery. Dr Hoffman has floor to ceiling glass doors, open windows and 3 air purifiers around the surgical chair along with all other precautions. I have great confidence in his work. My gums have retained 100% attachment. I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. Hoffman.
