Episode Details

Kelly Ripa just had a major dental procedure — not for cosmetic reasons, but to fix gum recession caused by her habit of over-brushing. Surgeons took skin from her palate and grafted it to her gums, a painful but necessary step for long-term oral health. With a 10-day no-talk recovery and soft-food-only diet, the usually chatty host is taking a quiet break from “Live with Kelly and Mark,” where her husband Mark has been stepping in — even sharing funny stories about her gum-checking habits. Despite skipping Novocain at the dentist before, this one’s apparently no joke. Recovery should be a couple of weeks, and fans are hoping she returns to her usual energetic self soon.
