You'll need to go back to your surgeon for a post operative evaluation since the surgeon who performed the procedure knows your anatomy the best.

Your Oral Surgeon is responsible for your post-surgical care. We do not have the detailed mapping of your hard and soft tissues that the Surgeon has. Return to him/her for reevaluation/treaatment.
