Q: I had bone graft surgery on my upper and lower gums in Sept of 2011. Everything has healed well it appears, except from time to time I get a weird cold sensation on one part of my gum. It happens when I am not eating or drinking. Any thoughts?
A: I am not sure from your description what type of procedure you had done other than “bone graft surgery.” However, a cold sensation usually would come from a tooth. It would be advisable to have a periodontist look at this area and take a digital film if necessary and see what is going on around this area.
