Hi:
Sorry to hear about your pain. Unfortunately with out xrays it is difficult to give you accurate advice. My suggestion is to get a 3D scan to really make sure the bone around the implant and the surrounding teeth is healthy.

Hi:
With implants just like teeth not only you have to brush your teeth at least twice a day, you also have to floss and get professional cleaning at least every 6 months. Any time you feel uncomfortable you can get a second opinion, however, everything sounds right.
Best,

Hi, it appears that your implant is losing bone on the inside area and that the threads are showing. Unfortunately, this makes your implant very difficult to clean and can lead to increased risk of gum infection. I would suggest you see a specialist (periodontist) for a second opinion.
