@squire123 I've been through oral surgery too to save an infected tooth with an old root canal. I thought I may have issues with penicillin and they used the antibiotic Clindamycin instead. It's an older antibiotic that hasn't been used a lot since newer ones were developed and it cleared the infection.

The other teeth that had old root canals also started to fail, so I had all the bad teeth removed and got Zirconia dental implants. That has been a good choice for me. I suspected that I would have issues with implanted metals, so I chose the biocompatible Zirconium. We waited a long time for healing of the bone grafts (5months) before the implants were put in, and then more healing time before I got the bridge to complete the work.

I'm sorry you have to go through this as oral surgery isn't easy.

Take care.
