Dental Implant Surgery

Pretty flowers on a box of tissues


I had my dental implant surgery on the 4th.  It went well, lasting about an hour.  The dental surgeon did an excellent job to this point.  He allayed my fears just before the surgery, telling me the most pain would be getting the needle for the anaesthetic.  He also said there would be some hammering towards the end, which there was.  That was a strange experience.  My jaw was swollen but I didn't need any painkillers for the next few days.  I was able to eat soft foods the first day and started to feel more normal by the next day.  I have had a follow-up checkup since with another next week.  Hopefully all the stitches can come out then.   There are a couple more steps but I should be done the process by the end of the year all things going well.

    Wow, Christine. You are forging right ahead. I was on soft food for 3 weeks. The next step won't be for six months and I may have to have a gum graft. Ack!
