Sorry if I sound neurotic. This may be completely normal but I just noticed it a few days ago. My new front tooth implant crown has a slight raised spot on the back where the screw is, so it has a little ridged area. The past three mornings, I noticed that my gums are swollen over the ridged area so that I can’t feel it at all. Within a half hour I can slightly feel it and by the end of the day, the ridge is back. I don’t know if it has always done that and I never noticed before or if my nightguard is rubbing it, or if it means there is a problem. I can’t tell if all my gums are swollen because I don’t have a reference point on my other teeth like with the crown. I have had the crown for two weeks now.
