Dental problems again

[Driller]

Yeah, nice to talk again. Have been doing big extension to practice since July (tripling size) hence not much time for anything else.

Not familiar with those techniques- no time for training right now but will have a look thanks!

Thanks for the recommendations, in the end I went to another implant person and was told though I have bone lose on implant but it wouldn't be the source of my discomfort and they believe I had Atypical Facial Pain / Odontalgia, I was told to 'live with it' (it wasn't a dentist recommended here but thanks for the recommendations I got)... in the end I had the root canal tooth extracted 6 days ago on my request as the pain seem to originate from there, 6 days on the discomfort I had before is still the same if not worse so it wasn't that tooth, I don't have a dry socket. I'm now believing the Atypical Odontalgia diagnoses, I think I went ahead with the tooth extraction as for myself I need to be sure it wasnt the tooth it was a risk and it didn't pay off, Ive lost a tooth I probably didn't need to gutted. I'm going back to docs tomorrow as apparently some type of anti depressants can help the discomfort. I feel bad as I felt the atypical facial diagnose was a brush off but looking into it more it seems a genuine condition where the nerves in that side of the phase get screwed up and send dodgy messages to the brain, reading cases studies and other peoples stories I have read online mirrors what I have been through last 6 months.

Now having the implant removed booked in for 3 weeks time, has to be implant, found that will antib injections into pockets around it gave relief for a few weeks at a time. Implant being cut out not reverse torqued, they spoke about cutting flap in gum and cutting the implant into two and folding it in, needs 1.5 hr appointment to do, not looking fwd to it. Person doing it recommended from pistonheads. So annoyed the Harley street guy told me implant was fine and to live with it, I doubt I would have the the other tooth pulled out first if I had seen my current dentist first. The Harley street guy in two appointments only looked in my mouth once to check bite, he didnt even probe around the implant to check for pockets, surely he should have? He purely used the 3D xray to look said it looked fine current dentist says the 2d xray shows clear area of non intergration of implant.
