Impressions were done today. I was NOT prepared for what they were going to do. I thought it would just be typical impressions.
The dentist had to take the healing caps off, then put in impression posts (which were too long and I couldn’t close my teeth together). Then they did an x ray with the posts in, then impressions.
Taking out the healing cap on my second molar implant hurt badly. I noticed the healing cap was bloody when he put it on the tray. Putting the healing cap back in, though, was excruciating. I cried and actually came up out of the chair to stop him. He apologized and said it was probably pinching the gums and that he would put a topical numbing gel on next time.
Ouch. My mouth still hurts.
I go back February 24 for the crowns!
