Four days after my all on 6 procedure!
I had my surgery on June 30th. Had to have my 15 remaining teeth pulled and I believe 6 implants put in top and bottom.
I’m kicking myself for not getting this done sooner because so far I have not had any pain or even discomfort what so ever and I was living in daily excruciating pain for the last four years but putting off the surgery because I was terrified of the dentist. In fact, since getting this surgery this is the best I’ve felt in probably 3 years.
The only part that was uncomfortable for me was when my dentist was putting in my temporary top prosthetic, right after surgery. The nerve blocker/anesthesia had started to wear off by that time and I ended up needing some novacain because the area was very sensitive. Swelling seems to be coming down the last two days as well.
Now the one thing that is really tough so far is missing food. I’ve been having a craving for both goldfish and pizza and knowing I won’t be able to eat either for a while is depressing but worth it in the long run!
