Re: implant placed during surgery?

[Guest guest]

Hi, I have had two implants and will have two more and a bridge when

this is all done. In my case well for one they have to pull a tooth

(my three front teeth have little root left thanks to years of lower

teeth pushing them out and a bad first orthadontist) but back to my

case, the orthadontist will contine to move your teeth after surgery-

-as you know--and this will probably have a large impact on on

where the implant will be placed so they will not be able to do it

during surgery because your teeth HAVE to be in their FINAL position

before they can place an implant. hope you were able to make sense

of that but in short, no.
