The excess tissue will most likely shrink over time. If it doesn't your surgeon can trim away the gingiva.

How that the General Dentist Oral Surgeon that removed your 3rd molar is responsible for your post-surgical care, and seeingnhim/herr will not resulting added cost. The tissue, no longer having bone and tooth to support will gradually recontour over time. Surgical tissue treatment is another option, and that may result in added cost.
