8 days post dental implant on bone graft #31, I'm still in pain, no swelling or nerve damage. What is going on?

stf_1966
Post-op pain started after 24 h; visit after 72 h: "no swelling, perfect healing"; CT: "not close to nerves, dense bone". On day 7: new CT. Excluded: infection, necrosis, neuropathy. Sutures removed. The implant does not reach the bottom of the hole but "that's ok". Doctor thinks I have "bone pain" - I'm using max Ibuprofen, should I go through this w/ smaller amounts of Ibuprofen? Reduced Ibpf but some dull pain remains most of the time. Pain goes off sometimes or gets reflected to #1. Not sure if pain getting weaker.
