Removed with no specific reason given

I was kicked off of Argonaut with no real reason given after taking my exam. It wasn’t due to failure as I would have been allowed a retake per the guidelines. The only thing I could think of is I had the guidelines up on my iPad and was taking the test from my computer side by side and they thought I was cheating. I literally didn’t do anything but try my best. I’ve been removed from everything. Are there similar platforms? Has this happened to anyone else?

Does treatment for this abscess sound right?

I’m 2 weeks out from implant and crown being place. This swelling/abscess has been here since about day 4. I’ve been using prescription mouthwash since then for about 10 days.

Today my dentist took an X-ray, applied a liquid antibiotic, and set an appointment to shave the bone as he said he made the crown too wide and and it’s causing stress on the bone.

Has anyone else experienced this?

I had my implant and crown placed about two weeks ago. Initially my bite was off which was causing a lot of pressure and nerve pain. When I went in a few days later to get my bite corrected the gums were swollen. Since then I’ve used a prescription mouthwash that has done nothing but make the swelling more pronounced. Today he placed a liquid antibiotic and plans to saw down the bone as he said he made the crown too wide. Does this sound right?

I’m in tears because I don’t have a full understanding of the issue and I hope he’s not trying to hide the fact that my implant may be failing. He said there is no infection inside.

Does this sound right?

I had a dental implant and crown placed 3 days ago and something feels off.

At first, the implant wouldn’t screw in. I was feeling pain, so they numbed me, took an X-ray, then basically forced it in (pushing from under my chin and on top of the implant). After tightening it, they placed the crown with a little cement. It immediately felt weird, like pressure across my front teeth.

The next day I ate egg fried rice and the crown cement came off. I used a toothpick to clean food out of the hole and a small string stuck out a little.

Since then, anytime I eat I get a burning/pain sensation on the opposite loser side of my mouth. It started with one tooth, now it’s affecting multiple teeth, my tongue, and upper teeth. I’m also getting pain in front of my ear.

Is this normal after an implant/crown, or should I be concerned?
