I would advice a consultation. Your dentist can check for any white lesions or fibrosis. And would recommend accordingly.

No worries... Great you quit smoking... Now start with a multivitamin with Lycopene for 2 months once a day and incase you have any cough please see your chest specialist (pulmonologist) and also your treating dentist. Make sure you make a picture of the scar for comparison Regards Dr Vinod Chandel
