I&#8217;d let your implant dentist know what it going on. If he or she can&#8217;t see you right away, then go to an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.regiondental.com\/tulsa-emergency-dentist\/\">emergency dentist<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It sounds like you&#8217;ve developed an infection at your implant site. You don&#8217;t want it to settle in or you&#8217;ll lose your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.regiondental.com\/tulsa-dental-implants\/\">implant<\/a>. If they have to remove the implant, you&#8217;ll have to get bone grafting done in order to re-start the procedure.<\/p>\n<p>Even without the worry about the implant, you don&#8217;t want a tooth infection to spread.
