Stitches appear to have dissolved and have very little, if any pain. Area is just a bit tender. Concern is a flap of skin (it almost feels as if it's on a hinge) that I can place tongue under and lift. I also feel particles from time to time that i assume is bone graft material in mouth. I have two days of antibiotics left and dentist told me to return in three months unless problems arrive. Don't think there is any infection but who knows?

Only a handful of clinicians worldwide are able to regenerate vertical bone predictably. So it is possible. U live in the states, In Florida. Dr pikos , Dr Craig Misch In California. Dr Jovanovic are your best bet for the revision surgery good luck
Based on your description and the xrays that are attached, I would definitely recommend thoroughly cleaning out the failed implant sites and placing a bone graft with membrane. The reason for doing this is to prepare the sites for new implants to be placed in the future. I hope...
