Hello everyone!
To cut a long story short, I had a bike accident damaging two of my front teeth. One was extracted at the time of the accident, the other was built up in the hope that it could be salvaged. Unfortunately, this tooth has also failed and there is bone loss around this tooth as well as where the other one was extracted.....
So, tomorrow I am having the damaged tooth removed and two bone grafts done at the same time in preparation for eventual implants. I’m trying to keep calm about the whole situation but I’m finding it difficult.... I’m scared about having an even bigger gap, how the gum will look after, how painful it will be, how long it will take to heal, everything!
Anyone who has experienced this procedure please can you hopefully help put my mind at ease ?
Thank you all
