Ive extracted a tooth over 8 months ago and had implantation at the same day (extraction and implantation in one procedure).  five months later the implant was removed because it was a bit loose. now im waiting to go for another implantation which is in about a month but Ive noticed that there is a split in the gum right above the extracted tooth.  is this normal to have the split after six all this timethanks
Hello, The split on gums after removing the implant may be caused due to tearing of gingival flap. Take doxycycline -100 mg once daily for 7 days. Swish with lukewarm saline frequently. The teared flap has to be approximated by suturing if necessary. Please do visit your dentist for further reference. Also monitor your blood sugar level. Hope this helps.
