Hi hope someone can reassure me. I had upper molar extracted nearly 5 months ago and was told it was straightforward but it has continued to stay red and have been told there’s granulation tissue there. Couple months post extraction a different dentist removed a couple of sharp bony bits that were sticking out the side and catching my cheek, amd he also removed a bone fragment. It felt more comfortable after this, but now another couple months later and I’m getting pain from the gum and have been seen by Max Fax. On X-ray thought they could see some bone slither, but didn’t show up on cb ct. I’m scheduled to have an explore and curette this week. In last few days as well as pain I have had odd sensations in gum, like someone is pinging an elastic band (I know it’s very hard to describe)
I am anxious that the surgery won’t fix this - not going to be pleasant having it done but it’s getting worse not better so I need to do something.
Any thoughts? Many thanks
