Hi, I had 4 implants on Monday, a lot of stitches due to bone grafting, a channel made?
Problem is a loose denture, threads and white stuff around my own tooth which is top front tooth.
My current denture has 6 teeth, upper front and one towards back. So 2 implants each side which will hold 3 crowns, which will replace the denture in due course...
Dentist cut away all the pink plastic gum away to allow it to fit in my mouth.
So now it's not secure, I asked him about this and he said I could use adhesive, will that not cause my healing gums problems? Also what can I do about white stuff and dark blue threads around my own front tooth.
I was still in a daze after surgery and tried to ask what would happen after my 2 week check to have stitches removed. But he just said I would have 3 (I think) appointments, he didn't really explain so I had to ask the receptionist! So actually I still don't know. I'll try get clear answers when I return to have stitches removed.
Will I have to have my gums cut open again?
I had no idea when I started on this treatment what it might actually entail. I was asked if I had any questions but I didn't know to ask about this. The actual surgery was explained but not the afterward part,
apologies for going on.
Thanks for your time..
