It is extremely rare that dental implants damage your nerves, and if they do, they can cause a number of problems. The main nerve that is in the head area, and causes the movement of the tongue, the face muscles and is responsible for sensation in your face is called the trigeminal nerve or TN, and it is extremely rare for that nerve to be affected by dental implant surgery.

I seem to have a bit of a problem. I have had a crown on my tooth for around 5 years, and last night I ran into a bit of trouble, one thing led to another, and I seem to have swallowed my crown, this was about 12 hours ago. I am afraid to go to the toilet and am afraid to smile. What will happen? Should I go to an emergency room? Will I digest it? if I don’t will it damage me on the way out? What can I expect?

“Hi, I’m Susan and I don’t know if you can help me. I have gotten dental implants to replace my canines, and am having some issues. At first I thought my dental implants were too tight, and were causing an itching sort of sensation weeks after the implantation has occurred. I am a shy person, and did not contact my dentist,a s he is very loud and not pleasant, albeit a great medical professional. Anyway, the itch went away after a while, but pretty soon the implant felt a little bit loose. This was two years ago, and now the dental implant can move about. Is there any solution to this problem? I have ample jawbones, maybe it can be tightened or drilled deeper?”
