I had old implants for dentures removed a month ago along with cadaver bone graft. Took antibiotics, rinsed mouth and was feeling better. Noticed a week ago I started having cold like symptoms. Now I have bad jaw and mouth pain, white gums and headache. What could it be?

Answer: Pain in jaw Thin my experience it seems as though you could have an infection. Bone grafts are tricky and if the gum opened up even a little bit around the graft, you could be experiencing complications. See your surgeon

Answer: Pain after implant removal. This is unusual. Implant removal is very similar to tooth removal in the symptoms experienced after the surgery. Symptoms typically present for 2-5 days. To have pain a month later is very unusual. You should go back to your doctor to evaluate. This can be infection of the graft, infection of the bone, trauma from something or something else. The earlier you go it to figure this out the better.
