Is it normal to have painful, lumpy gums 1 year after bone grafts? (Photo)

Most of the discomfort you are experiencing is most likely due to ill fitting / moving dentures your gums are very thin. So when denture puts pressure on the bone , you feel alot of  discomfort   Same as patients complaining about tight shoes and bunions ! your pictures show good bone volume. You should get your implants done soon before loosing this bone. At the time of implant surgery , your surgeon will recontour the bone if necessary. You should know.Ill fitting dentures will cause bone loss implants could privide better denture stability, improving chewing ability.  This denture stability reduces the discomfort/ bone loss.good luck 

Hi, it appears that there is extensive muscle pull on the left side in addition to the 'bumpy' bone.  The denture most likely needs to be relieved but also the muscle tension needs to be adressed so that your gums dont get sore over time from use of the denture.

This a bit unusual.  Perhaps, your doctor could go in and smooth down the bone slightly to allow for a better fitting denture.  This procedure is called alveoloplasty.  When you get the implants it really depends on if the doctor will be placing the implants, attaching a bar to the implants and allowing the denture to clip onto the bar.  If a bar is used, the denture will truly be resting on the implants only.  If the doctor is using locator attachments, the denture atleast partially will still be resting on the gum tissue.  I hope this helps.Shawn Hofkes DDS
