I am getting implants to get a permanent bottom denture, I was just there 10 days ago and the doctor said I was healing great. About 5 minutes ago I felt movement in my jaw one of the implants feels like it's moving. I'm not in agonizing pain but there's a dull throbbing the second implant feels 100% stable, no pain.
