I agreed to two ten-tooth implanted bridges, up and down. Implant surgery was done in 2 parts. In both cases 15-20 shots of novacaine was given with no numbing cream applied. This gave a throbbing headache which lasted through the whole procedures. In positioning the implants panaramic xray was never referred to. No precision measuring equipment was used to calibrate the depth of each drilling of the jaws bones, thus Kay drilled 2 holes into my sinuses. On one side this left a hole such that air/food flowed into my sinus and nose. One the other side Kay left an implant, which was forced up into my sinus as the gum healed. The implant lodged in my sinus undetected until I consulted a different Dr to heal the now dime-sized hole on the other side. The implant in my sinus had to be surgically removed. No xrays were taken during or after surgeries thus there is no uniformity of height or spacing. Oblivious to my wishes, Kay set implants for 2 14 tooth bridges, and now I am told I'll have to live with that. Surgery began Oct, 05> 10 mos. later, neither bridge has been built and 2 failed implants must be redone, involving 6 more mos. I would say more if there were space.
