I had an implant done 4 months ago, recently found out no bone at all cover the outer side of my implant. I have two options:
1. take the implant out, which might damage adjacent tooth, as implant was placed in a bad way.
2. open the gum, do bone grafting on outer side of the implant, and do some gum grafting too, as the gum cover the outer side of the implant dose not grow, at the time to place the implant crown, it is going to be ugly.
my questions is: for option 2, it looks like a temporary solution, do I need to repeat the same surgery every several years? or, what consequences I might get? Thanks.
I am still young, in my 30s. Thanks.
