3 More Months

I was scheduled to have an implant placed first thing this a.m. so I can get some front teeth again.  But the amount of bone growth is not what we were hoping for.  I was not surprised - my jaw line above the missing teeth is very high.

So, they opened the area back up and they packed it full of bone grafting again.  I am in a lot more pain than last time.  I’m hoping this is because they were a lot more aggressive with placement and packing of the graft material and it will be worth it.

Icing and taking it easy....
