I am looking for suggestions regarding a recent dental/periodontist procedure.?

Several days ago, I have a fractured tooth extracted, along with bone grafting and a sinus lift in preperation for a titanium implant. There was also an absess that they were not able to remove with the extraction. The whole experience was horrible. I am in continuous pain almost non-stop. I have stitches in my mouth and they seem to be falling out. Do the periodontists use disolvable stitches for these procedures? Why would an absess be left behind?





Obviously, I understand that these are all questions which would be best directed towards the doctor. However, as I mentioned, the procedure went badly and there were some personality conflicts between us. I am making arrangements to see a new doctor to complete the work rather than going back to the first doc and certainly would prefer not to call with any questions or concerns.

a few years ago, I had bone grafting to my entire mandible and had 6 titanium implants surgically implanted 6 months AFTER the bone grafting was done. Several DAYS is not long enough for your mouth to heal... it's a VERY painful procedure after the fact....be prepared for maybe a week and a half of pain---especially since the absess is still there---doctors do NOT normally remove an absess but treat it with antibiotics and it takes more then a FEW days to cure the absess...as for the stitches, they DO tend to fall out a few days after the procedure HOWEVER, you may have one or two that will need to be removed...but don't worry that they've fallen out...
