My heart goes out to you. I am so sorry this happened to you 

Hope you recover quickly! 

One thing I have learned from dental work is to get 2nd opinions. Dental work is more an art, than a science. I had a friend, who worked for two dentists, one very good, one very bad.  

Hope you feel better soon I'm also having sore mouth problems but I'm gaining from it at least your loosing that's one thing to be thankful for. 

Thank you all so much for your loving kind comments. Meant do much. I am struggling. Dianne 

True I am losing weight. Tough way to diet. :) 

Absolutely rotten way to diet!! Is the infection starting to clear at all? Seems this has been going on for a very long time ;-(  

Rotten way to diet but nice drop... 

It has been going on for 6 weeks actually. Very entrenched infection from implant that failed from day one with forcing of badly fitted temporary. 4 antibiotics so far. Infection still active and massive inflammation.  

Again thank you all for your sweet comments. I would encourage anyone contemplating implant work to get two opinions. Implants are presented as routine ...they are not..bone status, age, kidneys status...all critical...I cannot take any pain meds including ibuprofen due to kidney status. And been sober/clean for 30 years. Did this all with just Novacain. And regular Tylenol. Ibuprofen is great for inflammation and better than narcotics for pain but it will eat your kidneys alive so could not go there. Been awful. Should have just kept my bottom teeth.
