After Dental Implant Surgery - Don't Do These at ALL COSTS! 

How you doing now? Didnt you get a sinus lift, before implants?

@@JamesSoho hi, I had a bone graft back in Dec. the implants were placed last week. My dentist used the existing bone with the healed bone graft to push up on my sinus for the sinus lift. I had a follow up today and asked how far into the sinus the implants went and he said 1 maybe 2 mm. He said the membrane will heal over, so I asked about the bone. He said it will too (but I've heard other dentists say some bone might, but it's not typical). Since I'm healing well he feels I'm going to be ok. I have another follow up in 2 weeks. I guess we wait and see. God is good, I'm healing wonderfully. Thanks for asking 🙂

​​@@JamesSohoI had replied earlier but don't know where my message has gone? I had a bone graft back in Dec. and the sinus lift last week. My follow up was yesterday. I asked how far inside my sinuses the implants went, he said 1 maybe 2 mm. He also said the membrane will heal and the bone will too. I have another follow up in 2 weeks.

You'll be just alright 🫶🔥......... I too have an implant + 2re-rct+ MTA plug, starting 15aug........Pray for me buds...

How are you?

hi how did it go?

I hope it went well for you.

What about if they get a infection and have to be removed? Then what

@@toma.6942 mmmm have them replaced no other choice but I’ve got good hygiene not a scruffy tramp smoked or drinker mine have been in 12 months all fine

@@toma.6942 then he gets a new bone graft and they redo them. Why do you ask that?

@@kathleenhutchings3854 because I have read too many horror stories about them. And studys. Causing oscc.

@@kathleenhutchings3854 because I have read too many horror stories about them. Also causing oscc

How did it go? Were you in a lot of pain? I get mine in September and I’m really nervous

​​Mine was not painful at all. Had 2 implants done and it took 15 minutes at the most. No swelling afterwards and very little pain medicine. Took pain pill while mouth was still numb. Ate 2 bowls of ice cream within 2 hours of having it done. I too was nervous, but come to find out my mind was the problem...not the procedure. Would do again in a heartbeat. Used novacaine and nitrous oxide only. No sedation needed.

​@@zaraisrael7710just got 2 post in last week.. only thing I would say is a headache after the process caused by my own nervousness and tensing jaw the entire procedure. You don't have nerves in your jaw bone only the gums around it is what you can feel if the dentist hits a hot spot and even that's just a little pinch. The dentist will numb the hot spot and simply get back to the surgery. Id say on a scale of 1-10 for pain rating id give the procedure a 2. No worries

Lucky! Good luck ! xxxx

@@scw8735but the injections hurt so bad.. i am terrified

I hope you are okay now??

@@angelaschaefer5883 I am! I just got a shock when I saw my face in the mirror, but at my routine check up 2 weeks later i found that I didn’t have any lasting dental damage. 1 year later and I have a prominent scar on my bottom lip but luckily I’m not too bothered by it! Thank you for asking ❤️

I fainted after having my wisdom teeth out fell flat on the floor getting up in the middle of the night. Now I need an implant. I am much older now but I am scared to death! Hope you’re doing better now!!

Oh my gosh, this just happened to me today when I got home from the implant surgery! Same thing, I laid down as soon as I got home, fell asleep, stood up and went down fast. So wierd!

That me after my four implant

I was making my list of food for this coming week's graft while watching this. Hell yea!!! I didn't even think about cheesecake. Thank you. This is almost like a free pass to eat soft unhealthy food for a few days. I might throw a bowl of potato soup in just for kicks. LOL

I never thought of that one either. My teeth were pulled in February. This person is genius.

Same no sedation just local

I had a dental surgery on 11/10/23 and they pulled 4 teeth, while also filling some teeth. I had anesthesia.

Same just had mines done on 11/27/23. Just taking antibiotics now. Only took 1 800 since then.

Did you take antibiotics, I read if you are healthy you do not need to take them.

I had 2 done yesterday with surgeon dental md. Local anesthetic only. No pain during procedure. Currently taking 800 Ibuprofen and Tramadel for pain . Amox for antibiotics. . 2 to 3 pain scale post procedure. Dont be scare. It is not that bad. I had my placed by maxillofacial surgeon. My aunt's husband had implants placed by regular dentist and he was in terrible pain after a few days. He asked is for Norco pain meds to take for pain. I got scared so i went to surgeron just in case. $1400 down and $230 per months for 6 months for 2 lower molars.

Updates? How do they feel?

You had an inexperienced dentist if he didnt use proper thread....

I almost cry when you mentioned the dentist came into the room with a hammer. It is crucial to source the right dentist. I will spend day and night to read all the reviews on Google recommended dentists before choosing the final one.

Uhhh, that dentist is NOT "a nice guy"!!! 😟 Just because he may have spoken to you with a nice tone of voice doesn't make him "nice." Don't give him any more your money and stay away from him.😐

Where did you get this done the set of loonytons? I have had bone graft and a dental implants because my face got smashed and it was nothing like that at all

@@captainchaos3053 lol, it was insane. The hammer and chisel bone graft to the jawbone. Smash, smash, smash. Some Chinese-American oral surgeon.

WOW! What a painful journey! I hope you feel good now. 🤲🙏🏽

That’s a lot. You probably not American cause that’s a lot of $$$

@@lombardo141 I had it done in Turkey in a great clinic, it cost me 12000 euros for a total refit of crowns.

​@@TheFiown Hi mate, I had the same as you except I had 12 implants also in Turkey Istanbul, where did you have yours done in Turkey, I paid £11800 not sure what that is in eroues .

@@itsnowornever6119 I went to Attelia in Antalya on the coast. I had two sinus lifts (very violent) three extractions, seven implants over three bone grafts and hundreds of stitches. They are crowing every tooth, maybe a couple of small bridges. The initial quote was 9.000 euros +/- (6000 first trip then 3000 second) then when I got there it was 12000 euros, 8+4 and I wasn't prepared as I am retired and my mother had to help me pay so I struggled to make it up. I am very happy with the permanent crowns on the bottom 3/4 but the temporary top ones are exactly what I didn't want, too square and artificial but there again the majority of people going there want the Instagram smile, so fake. I am struggling with the hundred of so stitches that are coming undone, not yet fallen out and the top teeth were very 'tight' for the first ten days, now are better. The clinic was great and the people were nice. I am happy it is over, now saving for the next trip ! Are you pleased with your experience ?

Omg I just had this yesterday...

Do you have a water pic? Gargling either coconut oil for 3-5 min spit in trash can.

I’ve been doing it and it helps with the gums. I am 3.5 months post op full top.

Would you still need them? ❤

That's my situation. Your dentist should be informing you when you can go back to them. It can take awhile for the swelling to go down.

​@@flight101Retainers are worn EVERY night. Just because you get an implant doesn't mean you don't need retainers anymore. One has nothing to do with the other.

how many days before you got on a plane and flew home? I'm asking because I have a bone graft and two decayed and throbbing teeth to be removed in the morning tomorrow, and 8 days later, I am supposed to fly to Mexico. I am so scared and thinking I should reschedule, but my two teeth are in bad shape and need to come out. If I cancel my trip, it would cause a financial burden for my travel person

Hey @localapplecart3907, how did it go? Did your dentist ever help you out?

None if you had no teeth to begin with

Glad it was helpful!

Happy to help!

Wow 5 days of no sleep? What happened? It might have hit the sinus. Are you sure you took all the meds - oxycodone, amox, medical rinse, ibuprofen, etc? My problem was opposite -- I am always sleepy. My implant and graft were last Thursday.

I only had one, and didn’t have any pain after the first day. So I’m very worried for you lol. I hope all is well, considering you’ve had one month now.

How did it go ?

Sounds like he didnt see the nerve in the CT scan.. or you didnt get the CT scan and just opted for xrays... Always get a CT scan so they have a good visual of whats where...

@@craigslistrro709I got CT scans and all of the works. Both implants got severely infected and no matter what antibiotics we tried including doxycycline for 22 days, all of it had to be taken out. I have to have them redone soon as the new bone graft finishes healing. It was an ordeal but I’m hoping for a better outcome this time, God willing.

Glad it was helpful!

No.

They gave me antibiotics mouth wash to use but not right away. (Not this dr)

After the 2nd meal but be gentle AND avoid the areas.

How much you pay ? Insurance?

@@BSA997 $400 with insurance. The procedure isn't over yet. But I have no pain anymore.

Go back to get advice if you still have trust in wherever you had it done.

​@BSA997 $1600, including the zircon tooth. Yes I had insurance. Without it would've been $3000+

​@krisradjpaul278 so far so good.

Sorry to hear than.. ❤xx

NOOOOO! Take a BREAK ! What are your PRIORITIES ?

I'm sorry to hear about your dental struggles. How many dentists have you've been to?

@@Dr.BrettLangston probably 4 now. I used to go to a dental school when I didn’t have insurance, which seems to be where most of my problems started. I can’t get numb either and now have to pay for sedation. The dentist I see now is specialized in implants, and is a top rated dentist in the area.

If you develop complications due to the implants. You will see dentist here in the states. They will want to know who did the implants. Once you tell them you had it done outside the country. They won’t touch you. Other countries don’t have the same standards for implant materials. Or require the same training we do in the United States. You have know idea at all what materials were used. Where the dentist was trained. There is reason dentists in the US warn you not to do this. Regular dentures made by qualified dentist in the states work for me. I can’t believe the nutty things people do to avoid taking their teeth out at night. I hope and pray you don’t have any problems. 🙏🙏

​@@angelaschaefer5883Why wouldn't they touch you? Are you a dentist?

You're absolutely wrong 😅😅😅 The currency difference is huge that you can do implants with doctors best of the best in any developing country and no worry about materials If something goes wrong just come back it's just much cheaper

Since I would be asleep during the procedure. I won't know what materials were used. How about their training if I don't like their training. Cancel my flight to the foreign country. Will the dentist cover the money I spent to come?? No of course they won't. Do you work for one of these dental tourism companies?? You awfully good at the sales pitch.

@@angelaschaefer5883absolutely not true first of all they have way better technology than USA they have laser healing therapy plus no gum cutting no bleeding and they give you antibiotics and yes usa dentist will still see you what does that have to do with anything stop spreading lies

They are not going to feel like natural teeth. You lost your teeth just like I did. So now they placed the implants. You will get use to them. Much faster then I will with traditional dentures. You will be eat things that I can't. It will get better but it is going to take time. I hope you feel better soon.

@@angelaschaefer5883 ​​⁠​⁠​⁠ I am 40 and I had all my teeth top pulled for the implants. I wasn’t only missing 2 molars. No I’m still not used to them. I hate them they feel terrible. Every time I eat anything food gets underneath them every single time I eat I have to get the water pic out right after I’m done because how it feels. So I’m going to have to carry it with me to restaurants and the movies, wherever I go. There’s pain in one of the implants it’s the same kind of pain that you get when you have something that’s too hot or too cold when you need a root canal on a tooth and it’s taking me three months of telling them that they’re finally gonna look at it in a couple weeks and try to figure out what’s wrong, the teeth that they showed me during the sales pitch are 1/3 the size of the final teeth that they want to give me. I am still in the awful temporary teeth. That the evil sales lady told menopause could use for two years! They show you one set of teeth and all it is are teeth. So they lie they are frauds this is Clear Choice Dental implant center. At my last appointment the dr daid that there is no way they can be just the size of the teeth they never do that snd it’s impossible! So right then I went back into the office of the sales person and asked her to see the teeth that she showed me and mine are 3 times the size. I told her that what they’re doing is wrong lying to people. They’re telling people they’re gonna have these teeth beautiful teeth that are just taking up the size of their teeth that they already have do, but instead they’re 3 times the size and take up part of the roof of your mouth. You can see my gums when I smile my real gums you can see where the appliance ends when I smile!. It should not be visible other people that I’ve met in the waiting room have complained to me about the same thing and worse! One lady said the surgeon damaged her nerve and now she cant eat right and she is drooling. She said its like after you get numb during a cavity snd then after cant safely chew because you’re numb. While it may be better than dentures, I didn’t need dentures, I wanted to get the implants so that I wouldn’t have to keep spending thousands of dollars because dental work is so expensive these days and I’ve spent over $50k just to be told every year I need more and more work. So it may be better than dentures but I had teeth and I feel for people who do not because it just sucks this whole dental system sucks people wouldn’t need to get dentures in most cases if dental care wasn’t so expensive in the first place. Its way too expensive and they say everybody needs to get so much work done but they also do work on people when they didnt even have cavities they tell them that they do just so they can make more money while ruining our teeth. I’ve had that happen many times they’re like no it’s fine fraud you have to be careful and do lots of research as i know you did. I looked in this place and it had good reviews a couple complaints overall good and I thought because I paid so much money it was gonna be awesome and it’s been terrible. My recovery has not been easy and the whole experience it has been terrible. Honestly, I would never recommend it, unless you don’t have a choice and you have dentures. The other customers I’ve met there we all say the same thing once they have your money they don’t care one bit shout you. I am writing a reviews and will make sure it’s in all the sites i can because they shouldn’t be allowed to do this.

@@angelaschaefer5883❤ how long in total to feel comfy again?

How are you doing? Any updates?

You’ll probably have gum disease and won’t qualify for implants. You need healthy gums and bone for the implant to stay in place. There’s nicotine in dip and just as bad as smoking when it comes to oral health. You can try to get implants but there’s a high chance they’ll fail.

Smallsadwolf. That’s as funny as you’re screen name 😂

Way better with a mouth full of teeth....A smile is everything.

Check to see if there is an organization for this disorder/syndrome/disease and find out from there who you can contact for answers. Most ppl don't know what this is. I only found out a few months back on YT because I'm interested in unusually medical problems.

If it’s only implant is fine don’t worry, nothing hurts during the procedure you just feel pressure while they drill the little hole, pain is manageable with medication and there is a bit of swelling, but trust me a toothache is 10 times worst then a implant. Most important is the way you follow aftercare instructions

Im getting mine tomorrow and I’m also terrified lol

I had mine done last week. No pain afterwards and no swelling. 2 implants took less than 20 minutes to do. Used novacaine and nitrous oxide only. No sedation. Took pain pill before numbness wore off and ate 2 bowls of ice cream 2 hours after the procedure. 😅 You will be fine. The anticipation is the worst of it. The actual procedure is painless. Come back and tell us how it went. 😊

I just got my implant it don’t hurt at all now . The only thing that was bothering me was the pressure when they were putting it in other than that it’s not as bad as it looks in the videos

Hi y’all I’m doing better got 3 implants feels weird but no more pain praise the lord

Did you get infection or what happend are you good now ?

Salt and water mouthwash No antibiotics is a very bad move

So you're complaining because of "the size" of the tablets to swallow when the antibiotics can save your while implants making it last rather than getting infected or something else..? 🤔

Yr not too bright are you

But you swallow food. Take your antibiotics for goodness sake. Plenty of water and they will go down

going threw exact same

@@deliastewart8715 oh no!!! How long has it been since you had your surgery?

5 weeks my face still numb also@@alissahague4779

What your doc said?? I want to implant..

​@@deliastewart8715what happened tell me

You will be VERY happy with a new implant. Dental implants will last your entire life. Make sure you have a dentist that is good.

I ordered a full titanium ring off of amazong. Makr sure you read the listing tonmake sure its dukl titanium. I also got titanium earrings and i was fine with both. BUT they took the teeth off a few weeks ago and I did have some irritation at the gums on them and they don’t know why yet. They will take them off in two weeks so we’ll see I’d they are better. I am allergic to some metals so i was quite worried. They did some blood tests but my allergist never told me the results and the surgeon said the blood test wasn’t accurate but idk

You sound ignorant my friend

dude, just quit. not worth it at all. Keep your teeth, and your entire body will thank you.

Smoking reduces healing capacity and causes infections. You'd have to quit. I quit 3 months ago myself. If you want any type of major dental work you can't smoke

​@@YafflesPrizes can I drink? After 1 month of dental implant

​@@YafflesPrizes I have quite smoking after implantation When can I consume alcohol?😭

I was wondering this too! especially the blood clot part seems more like instructions after an extraction (I could be mistaken)

@@elizabethe.5527 agree, implants only cause superficial gum pain which goes away in a few days as the bone has no nerves.. I had 3 done in Mexico $2700 bucks .. no pain after the gums healed

Same info just doing it longer

I wouldn’t it will sting, lol but it’s been 6 months
