So I've had my dental implant put in 10 days ago &it is on the upper jaw second tooth from the front. This is my second time trying since the first time it regected, I have one implant on the other side that healed very well. This new implant is throbbing slightly and hurts to touch the gum still and I can sometimes feel it pulsating is this normal or should I be concerned I really want this to heal well. Any feed back would be great thanks.

At this point I would not be concerned. However, it is very important there is not too much pressure on any of the implants while they are healing.
