AFCS_Actuator Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 I have kind of low gum lines in my mouth. When I had braces my orthodontist said I should get gingival augmentation to build my gums up. I never got it done. My gums don't seem to be receeding beyond their current level. They are kind of freakishly low though. Should I get the augmentation just to be safe?
Guest F16PilotMD Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 I don't think so. Can't say I have every heard of that.
AFCS_Actuator Posted March 7, 2005 Author Posted March 7, 2005 bump once to see if anyone else has info on this.
Guest doctidy Posted March 8, 2005 Posted March 8, 2005 There aren't many dental disqualifying conditions. You really haven't given us a diagnosis to work w/. Since you are a cadet, would recommend you discuss w/ the dentist or Flight Med office at USAFA.
