I had apicoectomy for 5 and root canals for my 6 front teeth. It took almost a week for the swelling to go away. But I can feel there is little swelling around my chin I can find the difference. I'm still having stitches the doctor said they are Dissolving sutures. It is almost 3 weeks I was bit wondering how long does it take swelling to go away completely.

Answer: How long should swelling last after a surgical procedure?
If the quality of bone its good, and the site where the implant is going to be placed you can find primary stability,there is no problem .also that way you will prevent the bone not to shrink. I hope this helps.
Hi, it appears that there is extensive muscle pull on the left side in addition to the 'bumpy' bone. The denture most likely needs to be relieved but also the muscle tension needs to be adressed so that your gums dont get sore over time from use of the denture.
One stage healing caps should only be placed at time of surgery.Exposure of implants too soon and the torque placed on the implants during the critical first 4-6 weeks can actually interfere with proper osseointegration (bonding of new bone to your implant).I would wait and be on the proactive...
