After I had my implant placed last Wednesday, my bite has been off. I figured it was due to swelling but the swelling is gone now and my bite is still off. It is like my lower jaw is shifted a few millimeters to the right. If I press on my jaw a tiny bit on the right and bite down, it feels correct.
I see my surgeon next week and will ask, but it is making my premolar next to the implant really hurt right now so I am hoping there is something I can do in the meantime. The premolar has a full throb and is sensitive to cold, and hurts when my teeth come together when chewing. It hits hard against the tooth above and against my nightguard at night. It is pretty miserable right now. That tooth has never had any work done.
