My wife had a dental implant done a few years ago. Seems like a common procedure and nothing to worry about. About two years after it was done it broke. The tooth came of and the post has snapped. She has seen a number of specialists and the repair that needs to be done is of concern. The dentist who did the initial work has backpedaled and basically left her high and dry. The fix seems to be surgery to remove the post and surrounding bone, let it heal and then do another implant. She is not happy, the thing has pretty much healed now. She isn't sure she wants to get it repaired but not sure she should leave it as is. I'm not suggesting that you don't get an implant just sharing an odd outcome. I believe the implant she got was some newer technology using a smaller post and that may have been the problem. Good luck either way.
