11 days post full upper arch implants. Now the pain on the roof of my mouth is beyond tolerable is this normal? (photos)

Question

I had full upper arch implants on Aug 17. No significant pain from extractions or implants. However the pain from the roof of my mouth is beyond tolerable. Can feel blisters and rawness. Sent pics to surgeon who said all is normal. I've hot a high pain tolerance and this is beyond what I can tolerate even on high dose ibuprofen and tramadol. Is this normal?

Jyoti Singh, MDS · Answer

Although some swelling , pain and sloughing is normal after 10 days but this swelling is approaching a lot towards the palate. It's better you visit the doctor in person for a review. You can do warm saline rinses(Add a tablespoon salt to a glass of lukewarm water) 4-5 times in a day for a quicker healing....Hope that helps ....wish you a smoother less painful healing

Amber Garcia, DDS · Answer

You should go in to see the surgeon in person. It could be necrosis of the tissue or bone. It could be a reaction to the anesthetic or materials used. It could be a viral infection. It's difficult to tell from the pictures provided.
