I have a

I have a problem with an upper molar implant. When the specialist attached the crown, he had a lot of difficulty screwing it in; the procedure ended up taking 2 hours with quite a lot of pushing. The result was that my mouth on this upper left side was quite sore and I could not eat on that side for 10 days. Now I can, but I have residual aches at the implant and surrounding area which recurs frequently – a mild throb – throughout the day. The implant tooth is a little tender when I press on the gum above the crown, and the gum on this side is redder than on the other side of my mouth. The molar crown next to the implant also ‘clicks’ when I eat on it, and it doesn’t feel right when I eat on it – it is not otherwise obviously loose. My dentist initially advised a ‘wait and see’ approach, but has has now referred me to another specialist. The problem is I have to wait some time for an appt. I’m concerned that i) that the tooth beneath the molar crown has been damaged (it has been root-filled), and ii) that the implant crown is not properly positioned, hence the redness and mild intermittent pain. I am taking antibiotics in case of infection. What could potentially be the problems here, and should I try to get an earlier specialist appt?
