Excuse me Michelle, I’m sure you’re a great dental assistant. But please allow me correct you on a few statements that may be confusing to some. I’m a practicing dentist who places implants.

1) The discomfort does not last 1-2 weeks as you say. I call all my patients the evening after the procedure. My patients are almost never in pain, few feel a little soarness, but that goes away the next day with most implant placements. Most patients have completely forgotten that anything was done earlier in the day.

2) Dental implants are Not rejected by the body. This isn’t an organ transplant where they body can reject a foreign object by activating an immune response. Such doesn’t happen with dental implants which is why they are very safe. But there are failures when bone does not grow around the implant for any number of reasons.

I had a single tooth implant and felt no pain during the procedure or after. I was given a perscription for pain butnever had to use it.

If the implant does not work, then can there be serious consequences i.e. to the jaw or sense of smell, or do you just wait for it to heal?

@yousurfer2 if the the implant does not osseointegrate, the implant is not held by bone, and can be easily removed. Healing then takes place. You should be monitored by a trained dentist.

Have 3 dental implants this year. 19 and 20 no pain at all. Tooth implanted at 30 in May, is causing severe pain all the way to the end of the mandible, mostly at night causing sleep deprivation. Is my bone cooked or is the ragged right mandible suferring from a broken extraction core?
