question: I had #8 pulled a week ago. Internal resporation, infected also. #8 had a 20 yr old root canal, crown hard to get the root out. Fused to the bone. Implant couldnt be done. Had 2mm bone graph done. I try to wear my flipper but its still painful, swollen. How long will my speech sound bad. Even with my flipper its hard to get some sounds out. Not my normal issues. They estimate the implant 3-4 mos. abudtment 2mos or so. Will I have speech issues til its got a new crown. Is this a common problem for losing #8?
