Before - Notice the low gums especially on the front 2 teeth. Notice the small membrane that connected my lip to my gums (between the front 2 teeth) - this is probably hard to see, but it's there.For some reason, nothing happens if you click on this before picture. However, if you scroll all the way down to August 8 - Recuperating, then you can click on that picture and see all the details.
After - Notice the difference in the gum line. Notice how that small membrane is removed (a major cause of the massive gum recession). Notice the white stuff...those are the smaller stitches that are there for another 2 weeks. They don't bother me yet. You can click on this picture to enlarge it...it's scary to see my face that large, but you can also make out the stitches this way. Also feel free to notice those bright nicely manicured nails!
This is a bonus picture. I accidently uploaded this one instead of the before picture. This is Stella being really sleepy (her eyes are actually open in the picture). She spends the night in the crate so this night it was extremely difficult to get her to budge off the bed and into her crate. She's already really spoiled and enjoys sleeping on the bed and couches when the opportunity is there - especially when she has a human body part as a pillow (Brian's foot in this case).
