Congenitally missing teeth #7 and #10 (Photo)

marilyn_martinezMay 22, 2016

Mostly likely it is a post-op infection you have acquired. A very thin chance of allergy to graft material which was suppressed due to medication post surgery and might have flared up once the course was over. Please see your dentist at the earliest.
