Time for me to pick the dentists' brains
I'm due to see my own dentist in about two weeks but I have a problem and not sure whether to see him sooner.
I had the crown placed on my implants in December and one is no problem but the other is a bit painful at times. When I chew anything other than soft stuff it is painful to chew on it. I cannot eat things like crisps or chew meat or chewing gum.
I'm not sure if it was always like this because I may have been chewing carefully at first but only now have been trying to chew harder stufff?
Is this a sign of a problem or is this a limitation of implants? It is a molar - replacing first molar (I think) on lower left.
thanks
