After Dental Implant Surgery - Don't Do These at ALL COSTS!

Feel better? Try that with stitches that are made with hard plastic thread poking into the soft tissues. This process is fucking brutal.

Does any one here have the severest pain disease called CRPS which stands for Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome? lt is the worst pain neuropathic disease known in the medical community.

Can any one who has CRPS and who has had their bone grafting done as well as their dentures with 4 to 6 implants on uppers and lowers installed and how were your pain levels? Can you rate your pain on a level of 1 to 10, with 1 being the lowest rating and 10 is the highest pain levels? l am grateful for any one's help.
Stay Weller!!

I had 3 dental implants yesterday, the first two goes well, but after drilling hole for the third one, my dentist can not find a 4.7mmx10mm size implant then he use 5.1x8 instead. After the surgery I looked at the x-ray , it looks 2mm below the bone crest. Will this cause issues like easy infection? Thanks

you want a heart rate low or BP low ? more bleeding occurs with incresed BP , nothing to do with Heart rate.

I had all on 4 upper done 6 weeks ago. It has been a nightmare!!!! My upper lip area is so extended and “long”. My face looks like it is being pulled down!!I I am afraid the dr. Put too much bone up there. It has changed my whole face. My temporary teeth dont even sit all the way up in my mouth! If i pull my upper lift up you can see the implants still. Looking at me it looks like my teeth are hanging to low in my mouth!!!! Have you ever had this happen and what the heck can i do about it. I a sick that I payed ALL THIS MONEY to ruin my face😢😢😢😢

I had a pice a vanilla
cheesecake ready for my first soft meal. I’m devouring it now!❤️💯

May Allah Bless you doctor 🙏🏽🤲🌹

Can we use mouth wash after implant ?

How long a dental implant can last? Are there side effects for having a dental implant? I got a root canal done in 1 tooth. I had infection after infection. I de used to change dentist. Dentist send me to a specialist. The specialist said the tooth need it to be removed. I suffered greatly with pain and getting sick often while having the root canal. Now after 7 years without the tooth. I move out of town. I see a new dentist and this dentist keep talking about me having a dental implant. I want to be tested to know if I could be allergic to titanium.

I really like that you follow up a few days after the surgery because you’re absolutely right I was so nervous about the surgery. I didn’t hear any of the aftercare information. They relay it to the person that was with me, but the person that was with me wasn’t with me for several days either they weren’t taking care of me, so I had no idea what was normal and what wasn’t I had a bunch of questions I read the paperwork that they gave me, but I had it at very large amount of swelling, bruising pain and I also had an allergic reaction to something and had to give myself EpiPen and nobody called me back from the emergency line. This is not your office. This is another state nothing to do with you or your practice so anybody looking to go to this doctor I’m just saying what he’s doing having people follow up a few days after the surgery is really really good and I think that would’ve been very helpful for me and reassuring to me that the amount of pain I was in was OK I am 10 days out and I do not like how the prosthesis fits or feels it’s huge and I’m not adjusting well to it , it’s a temporary but it’s four months and the way it’s driving me crazy every day with how it feels like I’m wearing ill fitting dentures on the top of my mouth and they just wanna tell me that it’s all fine but I spent $35,000 just for the top and it doesn’t feel good at all. I thought that they would feel like my own teeth , there’s a gap between that. Every time I drink fluid goes through the whole thing Food gets up there I’m only eating liquids and it’s like larger than an inch deep covering my pallet.

I am planning on getting a dental implant, and want to learn what I am getting into. Thanks for the information.

I’m 34 and I’ve only had one tooth that has caused me any problems in my life. Cracked it, got a root canal. Two years later, the crown and screw literally fell out of my face. I went to an oral surgeon and got what was left of my destroyed tooth pulled. When they pulled it, they gave me a bone graft. I’m not sure if anybody is familiar with this process, but the oral surgeon disappeared out of the room and walked back in with a hammer and about an 8” chisel and said, “Now I’m gunna need you to relax.” Luckily I was on Mars, sucking down nitrous like a fiend. But he literally gave me a good 20 hammer blows to the jawbone. Obviously I was numbed up, but the pressure was immense. Then he took this tool with a small, smooth round ball at the end and he literally used his body weight to lean the graft against my jaw. Again, I thought my jawbone was going to snap. I could feel it bending. Lol. Absolutely dreadful experience. It ended up costing thousands upon thousands of dollars, and 3 months after the end of a 2+ year process, I go for a follow up and the oral surgeon takes a CAT scan and shows me that my dentist never screwed the crown far enough into the implant. Wtf!! The dentist grinded the crown down a ways, too. I wondered because my bite had changed somewhat. So the other day I go back to the dentist and he goes, “Oh, that’s too bad. You’re gunna have to buy a new crown.” I was like, “Uhh, you mean you’re going to have to buy me a new crown? I’m almost $10,000 deep with this ONE TOOTH!” I paid him over $2000 for the root canal and crown that failed in 2 years and I paid him well over $1500 for impressions and this implant crown that he failed to properly secure. The oral surgeon visits and procedures cost me $7000. Dentist is a real nice guy, but this entire process has been a mental and financial NIGHTMARE.

Had my implant done on 10/10/2023, some bleeding for a few hours afterward. I had slight discomfort and an 800 MG ibuprofen took care of that. I cannot sleep flat but over all the procedure was not bad. Did not use sedation or Laughing gas

Isn’t this more pertinent to after an extraction rather then implant surgery?

I couldn’t take my antibiotics. I told the clinic I have never been able,to take meds as I can’t swallow them, they still gave me huge pills so I never took them. Now my mouth tastes vile and putrid. I had surgery 7 days ago

I smoke Pipe Tobaccos and Cigars. With these, you do (NOT) inhale into the lungs 🫁. But I’ve checked other recommendations, they say not to smoke for 2-7 months after. That sounds like ludicrous, considering most research on smoking is only what docs know from cigarettes and not pipe/cigar.

hi have all on 6 , just have to wait for the implants to attach when can you brush the implants ?

Day 3. No bleeding, but a lot of pain and swelling. Don't know if this is normal though

Can we use mouthwash specifically listerine

How about romance?

On day five after two implants put into my lower jaw. The pain is severe and excruciating and after five days of no sleep my surgeon is going to take a look at it. It might be infected. :-(

Ya people think because they feel ok body wise they can go to the gym or clean the house. I think we need at least a week to recover from the main bits.

Excellent info. Thank you.

bs! My cadavers didnt take..twice! What a waste of $$. Dont recommend it. And Im completely healthy, no diabetes, perfect health. We are not advanced enough, still in the trees as humans..

Excellent advice! I got the exact same explanation from my endodontist after root resection. I followed instructions and healing was perfect.

I’m getting mine done on the 11 , I’m scared

4 months after tooth extraction of #7 and 8 due to resorbtion i had the implants placed. The doc said one week follow up appt that there is abnormal swelling. He told me to make sure i am brushing the area. Is this a concern of the swelling. He removed the remaining stitches and i have been brushing the area 3x a day. Thoughts? concerns?

Can we consume alcohol after 48hrs?

I cant do any of these cuz of hemophilia

Advice matches advice I received too. But how long do you want to wait until doing scuba diving again?

Thank you for all the detailed info. I had a bone graft implant done last year and scheduled for another this August. Got the same instructions from my surgeon and it's good to get this confirmed. I might add proper oral hygiene is crucial going forward for ongoing success.

Thank you so much for this

I had two sinus lifts after four really difficult extractions then 7 implants yesterday, today zero pain and almost no swelling.

How long after can I brush my teeth?

I use clear retainers after completing invisline, after implant/graft surgery, how long do I have to wait to be able to use retainer?

Thank you Dr. Extremely helpful tips...

Thank you🙏🏽❤️ I just got surgery yesterday
