Is It Common For Healing Screws To Come Loose?

March 8th, 2015
Q.

H Dr. Moore, I have a question for you. My partner has just had healing screws fitted as he is having four implants placed. He is waiting to have final treatment in two weeks time when the gums heal. He was biting into a sandwich and felt that one of the healing screws had come loose. Is this common, and can it be replaced? Does it mean that the gum has rejected it? Will this delay the final treatment? He had the implants put in 9 months ago. Thanks in advance.

My implant fell out should I leave the area alone to heal?

June 25th, 2011
Q.
After 5 years my implant has fallen out. For about 6 months I was noticing food getting stuck at the site of the implant. One day I went to floss and the implant totally feel out!! When I smile or talk you can not see the missing tooth. It has been 2 weeks and the site is beginning to close. Is it OK to leave it alone? Will it heal without infection. I\’m not sure I want to rep

lace it. (The entire implant with post intact fell out) I am looking for new dentist after several of our family has had problems with fillings ect. that she has performed. So I am interested in another oppinion. Thank you so much.,

My implant hasn’t been fitted correctly, should I seek a second opinion?

May 7th, 2011
Q.
Hello, I had a baby tooth on my left lowerside the first of my molars, and at 35 it cracked due to a 20 yr old filling and absysed. I had it removed and have now had an implant in the UK this wk. My questions arise due to the implant. I went on Tuesday and had the operation but at the end they said the threading on the drilling did not work correctly so they could not get the metal implant in deep enough – it sits above the gum about 5mm. I went back on Thursday and they put me under again as they were to put it correctly under the gum at the correct height. I\’ve gotten back today and they have lowered it but not a great deal it still pokes out about 3mm. I will call them in the morning to ask what happened but i know they will of course reasure me there is no problems…can you advise if i should go to seek a second opinion as this is now beginning to worry me and what do you think about this happening? thankyou.
