incisions on the outside?

[Guest guest]

Today my oral surgeon mentioned that there could be a chance of

having two small incisions on the outside along the lower jaw bone

from where he needs to cut in order to put the screws in. I have

seen another oral surgeon who said nothing about this and from what I

have read on this site and many others, normally incisions are made

on the inside of the mouth. Has anyone had incisions on the

outside? He said the scars should be small and out of the way, but

it really worries me of what the final result will be since there are

no guarantees with how well the incision will heal and how big the

scar will be. Is this a normal part of the procedure? Thanks!
