Question:
Implants and sinuses: About 2 years age I had 4 titanium implants implanted, 2 on both upper sides.
I have been experiencing horrible pain to both sides of my head, high sensitivity to nose, also pain to right side of my jaw. I at times cannot eat and the pain is worse than a toothache.
I have gone back to my dfentist and periodontist and they have me going in circles. Can the chances be that they probably damaged a nerve ot my sinus cavity?
Ultimately I have gone to see a ENT doctor and he took a CT of the sinus. I should be getting results pretty soon. I don't know what is going on. ....Visitor from TX
Answer:
Sounds to me like you're going in the right direction by seeing the ENT Doctor.
Hope the sinus CT shows what is going on. You may also need to see a dentist again after you get the results. Maybe time for a second opinion, possibly from an oral surgeon.
