Oct. 2. 2020 - Update on me and how I'm dealing with the pain after dental implants uppers & lowers

As many of you already know, I had oral surgery on Wednesday, September 30th and I hate to admit this but it was a lot more invasive than I could have ever imagined. I now have 6 implants on the top and 4 on the bottom. This is referred to as all on 4 or all on 6. The surgeon tries his best to get in as many implants that is possible.

Due to my serve bone loss I did need a zygomatic implant on the right and all that means is it is a long screw that goes up into the cheekbone rather than the jawbone like that other implants go.

I covet your prayers.I do want this pain to go away and not be dependant on pain meds to be able to function.

I will do my best to come back day by day and leave a brief update.

I am sending all my love and prayers to each of you and thank you so much for your love & support.

The swelling & bruising is getting worse as this is my 2nd day.

More coming tomorrow. Hugs to all my wonderful crafting family!!
