First, it fell out. Then I had to get bone grafting somewhere else and then go back to him to have the implant re-done. Then I&#8217;ve been treated for infection after infection. It seems to be under control now, but lately I&#8217;ve had a bad taste in my mouth. And, to make matters humiliating, my boyfriend mentioned my breath has turned bad. My dentist said the implant is fine and to see a doctor. I&#8217;m having a hard time thinking the implant has nothing to do with it.<\/p>\n<p>Beverly C. &#8211; Wisconsin<\/p>\n<p>Beverly,<\/p>\n<p>Wow! What a nightmare you&#8217;ve had. \u00a0I&#8217;d be interested to know what type of dental implants training your dentist has. This an advanced procedure and requires more knowledge than \u00a0just the basic training from dental school.<\/p>\n<p>With your recurrent infections, I wouldn&#8217;t be so quick to brush off the <a href=\"https:\/\/libertyvilledentist.com\/implant-dentist.html\">dental implant<\/a> as the cause of the smell and taste. It sounds like the infection could be rearing it&#8217;s ugly head again. If the infection takes hold, you could lose the implant&#8230;again.\u00a0If so, that would mean starting over with bone grafting and then a new implant.<\/p>\n<p>It would be a good idea to get a second opinion on this from another implant dentist. Find one with some expertise.<\/p>\n<p>This blog is brought to you by <a href=\"https:\/\/libertyvilledentist.com\">Dr. David Potts<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve had an unending nightmare with my dental implant.
