After an almost 2 1/2 year ordeal I’m finally getting my permanent crowns for my implants tomorrow. I should be excited but instead I’m scared.
For one I had an appointment just yesterday to fit the implants before the porcelain is applied (I don’t know what it’s called but it was gold attaching to them on top and bottom) and it hurt like heck getting the numbing beforehand and even more so when the numbing started to wear off (I burn through it fast, dentist knows this) with already irritated gums from yesterday I’m worried how much more it might hurt tomorrow.
On top of that I have a semi irrational fear I’m gonna hate them. I don’t know why. I’ve had no front teeth since October 2017 (had the implants placed September 2018, healing abutments placed February 2019 and it’s been slow since then due to some metal allergies I have) and I’ve grown so accustomed to that that when they put the pieces in yesterday it wasn’t uncomfortable but just felt weird/wrong.
I’m beyond thrilled I’m almost done...but I still have one tense appointment to go...
