Dental implant failure
The dental implant I had installed a while ago failed. What they do is implant an anchor and the let it heal so the bone can adhere. Then follow-up by placing the crown on it a couple of months later. Interesting how it all works. Thought all was good, until I felt it loose in the very far back of my mouth. Began to hurt bad last weekend when I chewed on that side. Last night I'd have enough. Pulled out the needle-nosed pliers and jerked it out:
Sorry about the picture, only have engineering pads. Went to the oral surgeon this morning and said this is no good at all. Pulled it out of my pocket and gave it to him. He thought I'm a pretty tough guy. It's all under warranty.

Looks like the front of a jig body....I thought it was a joke at first until I read the whole post. Lol sorry about the dental problems, but lucky the warranty covers it.

Randy, my wife had an implant done and I am not showing her this post. She would have nightmares forever. It was a long drawn out process for her and cost about $5K and she said she was never doing that again.
If hers came out, I would not want to be in the same room with her dentist when she came in.
