Case Summary
Bridge Dental Implants
Teeth: 1,2,3,4,5,19,20,21 
Case Description
About 6 weeks ago I had 2 procedures done. First I had surgery for 3 implants in my lower right jaw and the same time I had done work to make a bridge (5 teeth) on top left. Now i always have a lot of saliva in my mouth and constantly swallow it. Is this possible that during the implants surgery my sublingual glands were affected or could it be my bridge (metal ceramic), gives me too much saliva?

When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
  • Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
  • Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description, special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
  • Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
  • Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors. Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

I am at the implant center at Tufts University , also have been restoring implants for 13 years, and very few people have that complaint, but when it happens it is usually not related to the surgery but due to the fact that these restorations are foreign objects to your mouth , and every body that I know have managed to overcome the problem within few weeks. Do not worry hopefully it will be OK.
