Today I met with Dr S to make sure I did not get an infection after last weeks mess and to work out a game plan. The good news is that I do not have an infection (HAZZAH!). The top of the implant I see in the back of my new jaw is the cap part. Not the cap that would sit above the gum line. This cap is to make sure no tissue goes into the implant. He confirmed with me that they will be trying to replace the two implants that were taken out in February. (Guess Dr B did not realize he took out two.) Also will be shaving the bone that grew over the implant. All this will be done in June. He just said to keep rising with Peridex to help keep my mouth clean. So here is hoping that I will get teeth for Christmas. :)
