    Recovering from 4 extractions one of which was a wisdom 🦷 can’t see myself smiling much over the coming months. 

    Then again, supporting Charlton there’s never much to smile about anyway:(

    The worst bit was the extraction, the actually putting in the implant and drilling into the bone, wasn’t that bad, just a bit odd

    Yeah, it’s odd when somethings being done, that you know should hurt but doesn’t because of the anaesthetic. What about once it had worn off, did you experience much discomfort?

    Nope, took some paracetamol for 24 hours and was fine pain wise. I was lucky that I didn’t need that many stitches and I had a healing cap installed straight away. 

    You just need to be careful with the stitches for a few days and that can feel tight, but otherwise it was all good.

    putting the crown on was worse as the torque needed was cranked up

    That's reassuring though of course we wont all respond the same way but sounds positive all the same.

    Currently in Budapest getting the final work done on my teeth.

    Spent 5hrs in the 🦷 🪑 yesterday. Thought I was Paul Gascoinge for a mo! 

    Surely a 🌎 record?
