What would u do? Pt was getting headaches bc she was hitting too hard on LL didnt tell me till she rolls in for suture removal and out implant comes. My current plan is replace and sleep it. Concerned about LR also, will flap and visualize possibly replace also.

Hey Nick, this has happened to me several times.
1) I usually prepare to make a new provisional right away. Because you’re going to have an extended healing period now, you know your temp will go through more wear and tear.
2) place a new implant in a new site on the left.
3) deliver new temp attached to all implants and wait it out.
No worries, it happens to us all. I have even sometimes just cut the provisional at the canine to not get any function at the distal implant if necessary.
@vorholtdds you probably saw this all the time. What are your thoughts?
