3 months post-op osseous/gum flap surgery I have sensitivity and papillae have not grown back. When will this improve?

SUNEISHA
It has been three months, and a long, long road filled with uncertainty over whether I was advised on making the right choice. I continue to suffer from sensitivity and my papillaes have not fully grown back. Will the sensitivity go away in more time and will the gum tissue grow back? If so, can you give me an approximate timeframe?
