                                            Question : I just had an implant started under my sinus    It’s a redo. As last year it failed. I had to get it taken out and a sinuplasty!  I had two done. One I redid and it took. I had sinus pressure but it left  This second one?  He a,so saw some scar tissue w dead decay stuff in gum. I feel it and my doc even noticed it.  So he took my blood and made a solution w wbc’s and put it in and did the implant too. Well 
I am swollen in the lower cheek area. But what is really worrying me is I will need another sinuplasty and this implant won’t take again? I can’t afford To keep redoing. Plus go through this again and again? Until it takes? It’s awful. How do I prevent it? I’m in doxycycline this time. Augmentin last one a few months ago. But this one is much more congested and I worry it will go into a sinuplasty and lost work. Is there anything I can do? I’m using steam inhaler. Nasal rinse every two hours. My nose is sore. I take ephedrine during the day. And NyQuil XXXXXXX nighttime relief and a acetaminophen at night. What else can I do. Anything? Is timing important. Should I go back to denta; surgeon fast
! Get something drained ? Is that possible to save the implant work?

                                    Brief Answer:
Corticosteroids
Detailed Answer:
Dear sir, I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns but I would recommend that you get take an immunosuppressant such as corticosteroids to help the inflammatory process against the implant calm down. I hope you find this helpful. If you don’t have any other clarifications then please close the discussion.
