The Gum Underneath My Implant is Swollen. Why Might This Be?

May 23rd, 2015
Q.

Hi there, thank you for taking the time to read my question. I am a 46 year old female in good health. I had 2 upper implants fitted 6 years ago, and although they’ve been great up to now, the gum underneath one of them is swollen and quite painful. I’m able to eat things without much discomfort and the gum doesn’t appear to be bleeding but I would like to know what’s wrong. I’d really appreciate any advice you may have. Thank you Dr McGovern.

I’m About To Have An Implant Put In. Will It Hurt?

March 15th, 2015
Q.

Hi Dr McGovern. I’m about to have an implant put in as I have a missing tooth. I’m pretty scared of dentists and tend to get a bit panicky when I go, so I’m really nervous now!! Will it hurt? I’ve got a low pain threshold so I’m scared it’s really going to hurt me. And will my mouth swell up afterwards? I don’t want that!

If there is swelling and pain around where I have had an implant fitted, does this mean the implant has fallen?

November 6th, 2011
Q.
I’ve just had bone augmentation and a large implant placed that should hold a bridge with 2 teeth on, however 3 weeks on and I have a large swelling and pain above the site which my dentist says is an infection. I feel so miserable about this, I have 2 young children and just feel like all the pain i’ve had from my teeth is taking me away from them. This was supposed to be a straightforward solution but I have lost faith in the process and my dentist. Has my implant failed? I am so miserable. Thank you.,

I’m not sure if the implant ha… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
